First, on the opposite hand from the s, press both the home row index finger (shift) and the home row pinky finger (gui) then press |

As @dcolestock already mentioned, use the opposite hand for the mods. A User Guide will be added, but at the moment the only documentation is the Reference Manual, which takes some interpretation. The basic idea for mods and / or layers is to hold mods on fingers and layer change on thumb simultaneously with one hand, and use the other to reach for the key on the layer and / or to be combined with the mods. That way, the hand that is holding doesn't move from home, and the hand moving doesn't hold. So both hands can be relaxed, overall movement is minimised, hand contortions are eliminated, and any combination of mods can be used with any key. |

Thanks! I have most of it now. New to QMK and home row mods.
Now just have to fork it and build a custom layout for unused keyson the
iris6.
A but unclear on:
- Auto Shift for numbers and symbols.
- Secondary left-hand layer has shifted symbols in the same locations to
reduce chording when using *mods with shifted symbols. *
- The additional feature layer. Don't understand the use cases. Qwerty
would be helpful if someone has to use the keyboard, and would ideally use
the default base layer for the keyboard with some way back?
Thanks for all your work on this! The thumb backspace is amazing for
someone learning colemak. Now I just have to figure out what I want all the
extra keys to do.
(Ps, iris needed the console disabled for filesize reasons, and the dev
fork would segfault on compile. I don't figure configurator can handle
this? Via is not supported due to layer count?)

Thanks, I'll have to try the new customization framework. Having left pinky control for one handed shortcuts is helpful! I'm also using numbers on the top row, enough to learn with colemak. I just modified it directly, it mostly works except for the upper left KB_ESC for some reason. Will report back. I understand autoshift now. For some reason, I can't get the additional features layer to work. I think it's right thumb held with upper right pinky? Can't get them to do anything. And no idea what's up with the button layer. How is it activated? |

For Additional Features, hold any thumb then use the keys shown here on the same hand as the held thumb: https://github.com/manna-harbour/miryoku/tree/master/docs/reference#additional-features. But you also need to be using the Button https://github.com/manna-harbour/miryoku/tree/master/docs/reference#button is primarily for use with pointing devices, particularly integrated or buttonless. But can also be used for one hand clipboard. |

Ah, that's why I've been struggling with additional features! I tried switching to the miryoku origin already, but that one was segfaulting for the iris6 at least. Is there any way to activate the button layer with an external usb mouse? |

This will treat an external pointing device as if it was internal, including auto button layer activation: manna-harbour/qmk_firmware#40. It needs to be rewritten, and support for external pointing devices is currently Linux only, but if you subscribe to that issue you'll be notified of updates. |

I'm definitely doing something wrong with custom config. Got Via working by manually setting VIA_ENABLE=yes. Down to 644 bytes free! I now have a JSON of Miryoku for Iris6a, only took me 5 hours to get here ;) Any interest in a community resource of keymaps? Seems it would help people to try Miryoku if they haven't built QMK extensively. |

That mapping looks ok in general. You'll need the define for For via you'll need to increase the layer limit. Also, you might like to try vial instead. |

Is custom_config read instead of config when it's present? Thought the define would've been captured there. |

No, you're correct. I was thinking of Miryoku ZMK, where the mappings are handled slightly differently. |

Any recommendations on more features I can disable to up the layer count? I'm maxing out at 6 with console off and via enabled. I was able to get a default build of Vial, but not miryoku yet; above layer challenge applies, and I think more needs porting. |

In general see https://docs.qmk.fm/#/squeezing_avr and also check what else is enabled by default at the keyboard level for that keyboard. For Miryoku specifically, candidates for removal, depending on your needs, are the Extra, Tap, Button, Mouse, Fun, and Sym layers (#85), and the |

These are defined already by Iris:
BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE = no # Enable Bootmagic Lite
MOUSEKEY_ENABLE = no # Mouse keys
EXTRAKEY_ENABLE = yes # Audio control and System control
CONSOLE_ENABLE = yes # Console for debug
COMMAND_ENABLE = no # Commands for debug and configuration
NKRO_ENABLE = no # Enable N-Key Rollover
BACKLIGHT_ENABLE = no # Enable keyboard backlight functionality
RGBLIGHT_ENABLE = no # Enable keyboard RGB underglow
AUDIO_ENABLE = no # Audio output
I tried the following:
#define LAYER_STATE_8BIT
#define NO_ACTION_ONESHOT
#undef LOCKING_SUPPORT_ENABLE
#undef LOCKING_RESYNC_ENABLE
CONSOLE_ENABLE = no
SPACE_CADET_ENABLE = no
GRAVE_ESC_ENABLE = no
MAGIC_ENABLE = no
AVR_USE_MINIMAL_PRINTF = yes
As well as disabling all the RGB anims. Haven't tried disabling the entire
subsystem.
If DYNAMIC_KEYMAP_LAYER_COUNT exceeds *7, *I get :"Dynamic keymaps are
configured to use more EEPROM than is available." Controller only has 1kb.
Otherwise at 7 firmware size is fine - * The firmware size is fine -
21732/28672 (75%, 6940 bytes free)
Guess I could sacrifice the button layer. Maybe another time. I'm not sure
what'll happen to EEPROM when I start enabling features I actually want in
VIA/Vial, like encoder control.

Here is a temporary rebased branch: https://github.com/manna-harbour/miryoku_qmk/tree/miryoku-rebase-20220713-tmp. You should be able to build from that directly using the same build environment as with upstream |

I'll have to follow up with them. In the meantime, I checked the code for the EEPROM requirements: Since the Iris has 2 encoders, my understanding is that I run out of eeprom past 7 layers, but I'm not sure if encoders means encoders here, because disabling encoders in rules.mk doesn't fix it. Also I'd like to use my encoders. So I've run away screaming for now, and will just program it directly. Vial uses even more space. |

Great, so in the new branch, I got custom_config working. Very nice design, my first experience with C, I barely understand what's going on. For:
Would it be KEYBOARD_iris_rev6? 'iris' didn't work. I also got encoder functionality changing with layers. The code is in the keyboard's folder, and I couldn't figure out how to reference the miryoku layer enum, so I just used integers. Feels a bit sloppy overall, and would appreciate any tips! Thanks again |

First, on the opposite hand from the s, press both the home row index finger (shift) and the home row pinky finger (gui) then press
swith the other hand and then release them.
