Well nuts. This turned out to be a complete bust.

It seems that if you define a customed graphic for a button, it remains static.



So no graphically changing the display with the Shift key, nor with the Modifier one either.

Xkbd would need a seriously face lift in order to load images on all three layers of the keyboard.

Anyway, the source code can be found here:

I'm guessing though that it will probably now take at least 10 hours of someone tweaking the code to get this app finally up to date.

It's not looking too good for me, is it? *lol*
