Does the firmware/agent allow controlling the brightness?

In reply to Károly. Hi Károly, We don't plan to add keycap options to the UHK 60 v1 backlight upgrade kit because it's a niche product. Thanks for your understanding!

Hi
I was very pleased reading your message from 2023 Mar 03 "German, Nordic, Plain, and OS keycaps" and was even more happy reading this message and directly jumped exiting to the shop to order the backlight-upgrading kit including the keycaps.
But sadly there is again only the non-diacritic english version for the UHK I available. Do you plan to make a diacritic version (e.g. German or Hungarian) available?

In reply to Sascha.

Laszlo's recommendation of macros works well enough imho. Only issue is the capitalized version of a character needs to be bound to a separate layer, ie. you can't simply capitalize it using extra Shift modifier. Eg for "ö" I've this macro: https://i.imgur.com/eV6Lp11.jpeg

I am using the UK layout too and need germans special characters too.

For this reason I am using the EURKey as configuration for MS Windows and my Linux systems.
Using this you get ä for example with alt+a etc. very simple and it works great. (it works for skandinavian and many more european languages)

Hello László,
first of all thanks for the great keyboard...!

I use the US layout for most of the time on my keyboard because I'm dealing with it professionally, but at some points I have to use German special characters...
How can I insert these into my layout?

In reply to Nico. Hi Nico, I'm sorry to say that we don't plan to introduce further keycap options because the tooling fee of PBT keycaps and the mass production quantity are too high, so they cannot be justified financially. Thanks for your understanding.

Hello

Do you think you'd provide a french layout (AZERTY) some day?

Thanks !
