Should be othrolinear, much easier to find the various keys (alias macros) when they're all line up. I mean it wouldn't come to mind to miss-align the rows so why do it with the columns (and no it has nothing to do with ergonomics and everything to do with the fact that on old typewriters you just couldn't do that mechanically)

sixelannifI game with the Preonic and it's the beeeeeeeeest. If only I could learn how to program macros.... that's the only thing left I need.

a reverse 65% without the function row would be sick

Almost perfect... if there wasn’t any gaps to make it a lil bit more compact . And this would be ideal . Maybe a half space bar and replace the left windows key with fn .(windows key on left side is evil)

this keyboard layout makes too much sense. compact layout and no missing keys. so no one will make this :(
this layout + wireless kb =endgame
geostationbeen used multiple times but almost only in expensive gbs
I think a split spacebar would be better compared to a full sized spacebar. It takes less effort to press down on it, it presses evenly and just feels better IMO.

One more FN key on the left to replace M4, and uses Topre 45g with PBT caps... Here you go, take my money!
Good job!

Almost ideal. Fn on the left would be awesome.

Why the gap between the function keys and the number row? It would just become a standard 75% layout with an extra column without a key on the left if the gaps were removed. Also, why are there 4 indicator lights?

WHPGHGoing off a hunch here, but since the OP labelled this layout for gaming, the gap is probably for gamers to not accidentally misclick during a game (eg Starcraft, WoW, Smite, etc). As for the 4 indicator lights, the top one is probably to show whether the keyboard is in macro mode or not, since most other 'gaming' keyboards with extra macro buttons does this as well.

MaadryxNailed it. At least for me that's the reason for wanting space in between the f- and numbers keys. I have a 75% board that I hardly use for this reason

it just looks like a practical productivity 65% layout with a macro row to me

I have this layou, and it's frustrating to not be able to get replacement keycap sets
