[Bug 623435] Re: revert old behavoir of keyboard layout indicator: we wants use flags!
I join waster. I don't want to use the crappy indicator applet (with huge spaces and no preferences control). Still I appreciate keyboard notification in my notification area, but it the moment (10.10) it either shows the meaningless keyboard icon or if showFlags is true, then it shows only 'icon error'; p.s. mind that I am also using (apparently related) Typing monitor, which experience the same 'icon error' issue in the notification area. I would like to have the old (9.10) functionality back! ** Attachment added: "keyboard and Typing monitor icon error in notification bar" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/623435/+attachment/1868936/+files/notification-indicator-keyboard-flags.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/623435 Title: revert old behavoir of keyboard layout indicator: we wants use flags! -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

If you're seeing a black square then the code is working, the problem therefore will be in the filenames. Can you check the gnome screensaver login dialog and see if the icons appear there.

[Bug 623435] Re: revert old behavoir of keyboard layout indicator: we wants use flags!
The screenshot here is the desired outcome. However, the background rectangle and the two letter name for the layout are slightly more difficult. Requiring some investigation into all the available abbreviations and a solution to deal with the overall size of the text and an API change to libindicator to change the background, unless we can find a decent way to skin an icon only. We decided to stick with just a label for now until we can get to exactly where we want it to be. My question is, how were you changing the icon in the first place? From what I've seen of the code the text was extracted and applied directly, which is the behaviour we've tried to mimic here. There was no themable icon, or was there? @Seb128, what might be possible is to set the flag icon which was used in the status icon menu to be used in place of the keyboard icon, then we've got flag + label. Still not 100% sure how easy that'll be but I can give it a go.
