Hi Charles, right now I have noticed this situation
window with "other" layout set and in effect switch to another window switch back there is us layout on the indicator and in effect which does not agree with bug description. Maybe it is because I made the decsribtion under unity and now I am running xfce. MAYBE that is why I couldn't reproduce the bug by steps in message #4. IF that would be the case then there is another scenario possible: be in window1 with other layout switch to window2 with us layout switch back to window1 and there is us layout set (which is a bug) and indicator shows other layout (which sort of correct) There are plenty of other subscribers to bug and lots of them look eager to write something so I hope they will provide some help to you as well... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/885730 Title: keyboard layout indicator reacts incorrectly Status in Gnome Settings Daemon: Invalid Status in Ubuntu network, Bluetooth, keyboard menus: Triaged Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Hi there, there are few bug reports similar to this one but from their description I feel like this is a little different. I use three different keyboard layouts, switching between them with shortcut and having "Allow different layouts for individual windows" option enabled. In this configuration layout switch should be processed when shortcut is triggered or when I switch to another window. Moreover "to switch layout" means two things. Firstly it means to switch keyboard mappings themself and secondly to change what layout indicator shows. The problem itself: mappings which is used is often not the same as indicator shows. I experimented a little to find out what is wrong and now I see that the mistake is in processing switch-window event which always changes mappings used but doesn't refresh what indicator is showing... Sometimes it's quite annoying as nearly all bugs reported here :) This is my first bug report ever so correct me or reguest mroe info if I have fogotten something.
