Missing MBP M4 US layout

[st ati]

Hi, when I try to New From Current Input Source then Ukulele calls a full number keyboard with different layout. I would like to modify only two keys.

Hi,

The keyboard layouts used in macOS work in every Mac, with any hardware keyboard attached. 

In other words: How you see your custom keyboard layout displayed in Ukelele doesn’t affect its workings after you’ve installed it.

It’s only a View.

Still, for convenient editing, Ukelele has a list of possible hardware layouts you can choose from.

Type Cmd-K to get that list, or open the View menu and click the option Keyboard Type:

The most important choice in that dialog is in fact not the keyboard model, but the "Coding" seen on the right:

After finding the type and coding best matching your hardware keyboard, you can make them the default in Ukelele > Preferences.

You can read more about that in the PDF manual (available through Ukelele’s Help menu), in the first 4 paragraphs of section 6.4.2 on page 25.

The preferences: 8.2.1 on page 63.

Or read the full story in Sections 9.1 and 9.2 on page 78–79.

Thanks for quick help. Ok, I see the keyboard layout. But it has different key at right option and it is not changeable. Additionally Ukulele is not handle – on this layout – the FN key.

Is it possible to change these two keys via Ukulele?

Hi, meanwhile I found the proper layout. Aluminium Wireless...And I find the answer on my question. FN key is not modifiable. Thank you!

Well done; I see you have been looking around :-)

Even though Ukelele has definitions for the most common keyboard types built in, sometimes it doesn't recognize your hardware.

It seems that is the case for you. 

As said, you can set Aluminum Wireless as the default in Ukelele's Preferences, for future projects.
