Hey All.
I've recently swapped my keyboard layout from QWERTY to Colemak and DP7 is having a little bit of an issue with it. When I type any text into text fields like track titles, marker names, etc., things are fine and the new keyboard mapping works fine. However when I go into the custom key commands menu DP is taking all my keystrokes in QWERTY.
It's not too big a deal, I'm working around it, but I thought I'd see if anyone has run into this issue also.

Re: Alternate keyboard layout/key commands mapping issue
Interesting...
I'm sorry I don't have an answer for you. However, I have a question
I checked out the Colemak keyboard layout, and some keys are placed in different places. May I ask why you prefer that layout?
Won't you have to "relearn" the keys' positions when typing?
Just curious.

Re: Alternate keyboard layout/key commands mapping issue
Yeah, I am having to relearn. It's a more efficient layout though. There's less movement, so less tendon and muscle stress from typing, and I'm hoping that once I've improved I'll be at a faster speed as well.
