Easily remap and create customized keyboard layouts
Authored by: b00le on Jun 30, '05 11:08:34AM

I've done the same thing with an Italian Pro keyboard - also changing the square brackets for Photoshop. Ukelele (why not give it a name that one might remember the next time one wants to use it?) works OK, although it seemed to produce a lot of incomprehensible error messages before going on working as it seemed it should. One curiosity - the new keyboard does not work with shortcuts in Illustrator, and sometimes it just goes away on its own.

Have you made sure that the keymaps for the cmd and/or other modifier keys contain the newly set keys? E.g. when you switch 'y' and 'z' on a German keyboard, you have to switch them on all the modifiers as well to get the expected behaivior for cmd+z or cmd+option+z.

Concerning your second problem: Did you try changing the "Use the same source for all documents" in the Internatioal->Keyboard Menu pref. pane?
