title: Mod-Morph Behavior
|
|
sidebar_label: Mod-Morph
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Summary
|
|
|
|
The Mod-Morph behavior sends a different keypress, depending on whether a specified modifier is being held during the keypress.
|
|
|
|
- If you tap the key by itself, the first keycode is sent.
|
|
- If you tap the key while holding the specified modifier, the second keycode is sent.
|
|
|
|
## Mod-Morph
|
|
|
|
The Mod-Morph behavior acts as one of two keycodes, depending on if the required modifier is being held during the keypress.
|
|
|
|
### Configuration
|
|
|
|
An example of how to implement the mod-morph "Grave Escape":
|
|
|
|
```dts
|
|
/ {
|
|
behaviors {
|
|
gresc: grave_escape {
|
|
compatible = "zmk,behavior-mod-morph";
|
|
#binding-cells = <0>;
|
|
bindings = <&kp ESC>, <&kp GRAVE>;
|
|
mods = <(MOD_LGUI|MOD_LSFT|MOD_RGUI|MOD_RSFT)>;
|
|
};
|
|
};
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that this specific mod-morph exists in ZMK by default using code `&gresc`.
|
|
|
|
### Behavior Binding
|
|
|
|
- Reference: `&gresc`
|
|
- Parameter: None
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
```dts
|
|
&gresc
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Mods
|
|
|
|
This is how you determine what modifiers will activate the morphed version of the keycode.
|
|
|
|
Available Modifiers:
|
|
|
|
- `MOD_LSFT`
|
|
- `MOD_RSFT`
|
|
- `MOD_LCTL`
|
|
- `MOD_RCTL`
|
|
- `MOD_LALT`
|
|
- `MOD_RALT`
|
|
- `MOD_LGUI`
|
|
- `MOD_RGUI`
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
```dts
|
|
mods = <(MOD_LGUI|MOD_LSFT|MOD_RGUI|MOD_RSFT)>;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Advanced Configuration
|
|
|
|
`keep-mods`
|
|
|
|
When a modifier specified in `mods` is being held, it won't be sent along with the morphed keycode unless it is also specified in `keep-mods`. By default `keep-mods` equals `0`, which means no modifier specified in `mods` will be sent along with the morphed keycode.
|
|
|
|
For example, the following configuration morphs `LEFT_SHIFT` + `BACKSPACE` into `DELETE`, and morphs `RIGHT_SHIFT` + `BACKSPACE` into `RIGHT_SHIFT` + `DELETE`.
|
|
|
|
```dts
|
|
/ {
|
|
behaviors {
|
|
bspc_del: backspace_delete {
|
|
compatible = "zmk,behavior-mod-morph";
|
|
#binding-cells = <0>;
|
|
bindings = <&kp BACKSPACE>, <&kp DELETE>;
|
|
mods = <(MOD_LSFT|MOD_RSFT)>;
|
|
keep-mods = <(MOD_RSFT)>;
|
|
};
|
|
};
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
:::note[Karabiner-Elements (macOS) interfering with mod-morphs]
|
|
|
|
If the first modified key press sends the modifier along with the morphed keycode and [Karabiner-Elements](https://karabiner-elements.pqrs.org/) is running, disable the "Modify Events" toggle from Karabiner's "Devices" settings page for the keyboard running ZMK.
