# Encoder customization
Tweaking the encoder actions needs to be done in the keyboards/cheapino/encoder.c file, they are not part of the keymap.
(you dont HAVE to be a progammer to change it, but you may call yourself a novice programmer once you do...)
In the method called "turned", there are actions defined for multiple layers, this one is tweaked for my personal layer...
The "else" section at line 26, will send page down for clockwise encoder turns, and page down for counter clockwise.
The first if, line 20, sends volume up/down if you are on layer 6.
The encoder push is defined to media pause/play in the "clicked" method on line 15.
Feel free to remap it to different keys depending on layers, like the turns are done.
TBH, I dont really use the encoder much, so I didnt spend much time tweaking this...
Once you change the encoder file, run the command from step 6 and 7 to deploy changes to your keyboard.
