Description Matth Gyver 2022-09-19 18:52:04 UTC
SUMMARY
***
I've set 2 keyboard layout (FR and FR variant bepo) in settings > input device > keyboard > layout tab
Switching between the 2 does not work either via the default keyboard shortcuts, shortcuts associated with each layout or by clicking on the widget provided by Latte
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Going to keyboard setting
2. Add layout
3. Trying to switch layout 


OBSERVED RESULT
Sometime, after more than one shortcut press, I see a popup who inform me that layout was switched but in fact, the original layout keep the same.
Please note that if I set FR variant bepo as first layout and FR as second, I'm in bepo until I switch to FR but after switching, I can't return to bepo (even if popup tell me that it was switched)
If I set FR as first layout, I never go to bepo when I try to switch

EXPECTED RESULT
Switch to other layout

Does all of this start magically working if you uninstall Latte Dock and use the standard Plasma panel instead?
Comment 2 Andrey 2022-09-22 23:47:17 UTC
Please also try Wayland
Comment 3 Matth Gyver 2022-09-23 08:37:57 UTC
@Andrey: work's on Wayland.
@Nate: Latte is very useful and as it work on Wayland, I didn't try.

Thank's at you

I know, I'm asking you to, so we can rule it out as the cause of this bug. :)
