hold-trigger-key-positions do not work for homerow mods

[szabop]

I created the following configuration:
https://github.com/KinesisCorporation/Adv360-Pro-ZMK/blob/e1fad2719ca14c0dc6b394e6b3cfcd36c77c492b/config/adv360.keymap

I am using the homerowmods to have easy access to modifiers. [motivation: Homerowmods paired with custom layouts for maxOS and Win enable me to type the special characters of my native language on the Kinesis 360 with relative ease]

When I type fast, letter combinations like l-i will register as Ctrl-i, which is a typing error on my side. However, this is such a common "user-error" that there is a fix for it in the ZMK firmware, the hold-trigger-key-positions feature. This should disable accidental modifier activation on the same hand when typing fast.

Unfortunately, this feature does not work on the firmware built for my Kinesis 360.
It seems the settings on hold-trigger-key-positions are simply ignored.

Hi! Congrats on your Adv360 Pro.

I suspect this feature hasn't been merged into the Adv360 branch.

@ReFil would know for sure.

Hi @ReFil ,

Could you please comment on the expected behaviour of the Kinesis 360 Pro firmware with regards to the hold-trigger-key-positions feature of ZMK?

Is the behaviour I experience a bug? Is this a configuration error on my side? Or is this something that will only come to the Kinesis firmware version at a later time? If it is the last option, what would be your rough estimate on the expected delivery (few weeks, few months or even never)?

Thanks and regards,
Péter

The ZMK branch used by the 360 was last updated approximately 6 months ago. hold-trigger-key-positions has been implemented since before then, I'm not aware if changes have been made to how the behaviour works since

It sounds like you may be running into this issue zmkfirmware/zmk#2040

@szabop Did you ever get the timeless home row mod to work? I tried today and I'm not seeing any effect of having that applied. I'm just getting regular keypresses. (flavor is set to balanced in my config)

Something is off with my build/config (or then there's a conflict between Clique and the Github build). The keymap editor https://nickcoutsos.github.io/keymap-editor/ shows the config for the behaviors and that they are applied to my homerow keys, but when I open ZMK Studio they weren't applied. I set them again there and they took hold. I guess I need to dig in deeper into how the two work and coexist.
