Missing Swiss German keyboard

Hi
I really like Parallels but it has a bug which is really annoying.

I have to keyboards:
Deutsch (Schweiz) - Schweiz (Apple)-Tastatur
Deutsch (Schweiz) - Deutsch (Schweiz)-Tastatur
(There is no Swiss German parallels keyboard layout - only Swiss French!)

The problem: With the first one the accents are not correct. I cannot type äöü directly. If I choose the second one äöü work like intended (like in OS X) but I can't type @ with Alt+G but with Alt+2 (like on a windows pc).

Can you reproduce this? I didn't notice that in earlier versions.
 
Swiss German Apple Keyboard Layout Now!

Yes please!

I'm using Parallels since version 3.0. And I'm waiting for the swiss-keyboard layout since then.
I cannot imagine that there are so much more Swiss French users than Swiss German users (more likely other way round) and that we do not deserve a proper keyboard layout.

I know this tread is old. I was looking for the Swiss German Apple Keyboard too and I couldn't find one. So I created one. Hope this works for you guys. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4831653/swissge.zip

Hello Priyan

Thank you very much for you effort.

You have put the @ to ctr-alt, is this because the alt-key will not do it?
the \ is still at <> Key , this should be with shift-alt 7 key.

If you try to uninstall your keyboard, the original swiss-german keyboard is not restored anymore.

but we are the right way - maybe parallels could help you to finish this keyboard und put it into the next release?

Regards
 
Hi RadekM

My keyboard layout is for Apple Swiss German Keyboard.

I think you are using a Windows Keyboard.

You can download the MS keyboard layout creator and create a new or change an existing layout.
The closest layout for Swiss-German is the Germany-German (Deutschland-Deutsch) keyboard. With the above tool you can alter the German-DE keyboard to Swiss-DE.
