Karabiner-elements: Using 搂 section key on UK keyboard
Is there a way to map the 搂 section key to something else? Additionally, so long as Karabiner-Elements is open, my 搂 section key and ``` backtick key are swapped before I did anything, and I can't find a way to switch them back.

I've swapped those two (on an international keyboard) like this (snippet of my configuration):
"simple_modifications" : {
"non_us_backslash" : "grave_accent_and_tilde",
"grave_accent_and_tilde" : "non_us_backslash"
},
However, those two weren't swapped before I actually found the key "names" and did the swap. Don't know if this applies to your particular keyboard, hope it helps.

Thank you so much! I managed to reverse them back. non_us_backslash is apparently the section key. Any clue as to how to added modifier keys? So 搂 does 鈱樷尌8 or whatever?

@edenworky You will have to wait for #16

I see. Thanks! I added the unclear non_us_backslash name and the automatic section and backtick swapping to the relevant issues (#326 and #335 respectively). Closing this issue.
