[Bug 1245188] Re: Unable to set the keyboard indicator to show an alternative layout
Alberto, exactly. (With this feature it is possible to type text in definitely correct layout without looking to screen, for example.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1245188 Title: Unable to set the keyboard indicator to show an alternative layout To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1245188/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1245188] Re: Unable to set the keyboard indicator to show an alternative layout
Alberto, the original functionality of this settings in 12.04 is: - user sets up two keyboard layouts, eg. English (US) and some local layout - user choose which LED (or even LEDs) to use (see attached to bug screenshot) - from now on while the first layout is selected (English (US) from example), the LED if off; while the second layout is selected (some local from example) - the LED is ON The typical usage (for me) is to set Caps Lock as layout switch key (original Caps Lock function in this case will be automatically remapped to Shift+Caps Lock) and set Caps Lock LED as layout Indicator (with the setting from screenshot). (Also the same approach for Scroll Lock, but this key/LED is much less common for notebooks.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1245188 Title: Unable to set the keyboard indicator to show an alternative layout To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1245188/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

And what's the advantage of this functionality, having a keyboard indicator that shows itself in which layout you're? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1245188 Title: Unable to set the keyboard indicator to show an alternative layout To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1245188/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1245188] Re: Unable to set the keyboard indicator to show an alternative layout
Excuse me. What really happens is that I'm unsure what is the behaviour you find in the keyboard LED when you thick these options in the Keyboard Layout Options panel in Ubuntu 12.04. Do they allow you: - to enable these keys from the indicator? - to show when these keys are pressed? so I can figure out: - which is the priority of this bug. - if this bug needs to be reported upstream, to GNOME. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1245188 Title: Unable to set the keyboard indicator to show an alternative layout To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1245188/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
