Bug ID: 445284
Summary: Keyboard layout switcher not working properly after
5.23.3 update
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.23.3
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Keyboard Layout
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: alessandro.manc...@gmail.com
CC: butir...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
I switch between two keyboard layouts pretty often, and after the update to
5.23.3 switching layouts has problems
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Configure two keyboard layouts and a shortcut to cycle them on the settings
menu
2. Set switching policy to global
3. Cycle keyboard layouts with the shortcut and the system tray icon on the
firefox search bar, the chromium one and without any text prompt selected
OBSERVED RESULT
The keyboard switches layout only when a text prompt is selected. And the
shortcut to cycle the works only in chromium, not in firefox. Clicking the
system tray icon works for both chromium and firefox. If a text prompt is not
selected then the keyboard layout changes to us and stays there (even if us is
not one of the options for some reason)
EXPECTED RESULT
The keyboard layout should switch properly with both the shortcut and the
system try icon and given the global option being selected it should stay like
that for all applications
