If you like, you can download layout-display.json to load into Ted Morin's layout display plugin.

Usage

Once installed, you need to load a dictionary. You can download my dictionaries from this repository. verbatim.yaml is for fingerspelling individual letters. vocabulary.yaml contains some 10 thousand or so words and phrases. They're in YAML format, so you'll need to either convert them to JSON or install plover-yaml-dictionary from the Plugins Manager.

In Plover, click the big green plus icon to add dictionaries.
