Public bug reported:

Ubuntu Budgie 20.04 Daily (Japanese environment)

## Using “ibus-mozc”, two “keyboard” icons may appear in the system
tray.

This is because an afterimage of the “keyboard” icon remains in the system tray.
(It appears that the background of the icon is not cleared with the panel color 
before the icon is displayed.)

### Problem phenomenon:


---
#### 1: Symptoms occur where the "keyboard" icon was originally located.

At login, When the “Network Connection” icon appears in the system tray,
the “Keyboard” icon moves to the left. There is an afterimage at the
original position, and the “Network Connection” icon and the image
overlap, but the “Network Connection” icon is not noticeable. So it
looks like there are two “keyboard” icons.

 Correct  display: OK-2.jpeg


---
#### 2: The same phenomenon occurs where the “keyboard” icon has moved.

The “keyboard” icon usually changes depending on the keyboard input
status.

- "Keyboard image": (initial display)  -> OK-1.jpeg
- Orange "あ": (Mozc starting)  -> OK-3.jpeg
- Blue "A": (Japanese off)  -> OK-4.jpeg
- Blue "あ": (Japanese on)  -> OK-5.jpeg

Since all images corresponding to the transparency of the panel overlap
and the image is filled, it is not useful as a Japanese on / off
display. By the way, the afterimage of the orange “あ” stands out.


---
By the way, the "keyboard" icon is not displayed by default.
 -> Attached image file: KB-icon-off.jpeg

Japanese is a language that includes both kanji and alphanumeric
characters. By default, the input mode changes each time you press the
“Hankaku/Zenkaku” key. There are two input modes: “Japanese on” (Kanji /
Hiragana / Katakana) and “Japanese off” (alphabet).

It is set to display the “keyboard” icon to check the change of the keyboard 
status.
 -> Attached image file :
 OK-4.jpeg - Blue "A": (Japanese off)
 OK-5.jpeg - Blue "あ": (Japanese on)

Therefore, it is difficult to input Japanese if the “keyboard” icon is not 
displayed correctly.
 -> Attached image file: NG-5.jpeg

Perhaps those who use English will not notice this bug. However, it is
very important for Japanese people.


---
#### Workaround:

1. Log out -> Log in

It may or may not return to normal.


2. By separating the input mode on and off into separate keys, you can enter 
without looking at the indicators.

Personally, I assigned the input mode “Japanese on” to the “Hiragana”
key and “Japanese off” to the “Muhenkan” key. I edited the “Custom”
created in “Key Settings” in “Mozc Settings” (mozc_tool). It's not
difficult, but it requires a little skill.
