CTRL Key Mnemonic SIL IPA not working

Hello everyone. I am currently using the SIL IPA keyboard. My standard layout is Dvorak. Shifting works, caps lock works, but CTRL + any key uses the qwerty layout.

Any help would be great, thank you!

Welcome to the community site @pricejoshua,

Sorry that the keyboard isn’t working properly for you. Have you changed the base keyboard to fit with your standard layout? You can go to Keyman Configuration > Options tab > Base Keyboard.

Thanks!

The IPA (SIL) keyboard doesn’t define the CTRL key for anything. So, perhaps it is related to your Dvorak keyboard as @Nyny suggests.

I got extra information from our developer and apparently, Keyman doesn’t fully support mnemonic layout which cause Ctrl or Alt keys to output qwerty.

I have open an issue bug(windows): mnemonic layout doesn’t support Ctrl and Alt keys #14209. Feel free to add more info related to this.

Thanks so much for your repliesǃ Sorry for my delayed reply, I am currently in classes for the summer. I added more information on the Github issue. Let me know if you need anything elseǃ
