Description Dilian 2018-05-19 10:20:24 UTC
In the past weston has not shown the keyboard layout in the upper right corner, then something happend and the layout-switcher was shown for some days, then something happened and the keyboard layout swicher is not shown any more.  "Something happened" could also mean, that I changed the configuration file, compiled a new version of wayland, weston, protocols, mesa.

Why doesn't the 

My .config/weston.ini:

[core]
modules=systemd-notify.so
[shell]
locking=false
animation=zoom
[keyboard]
keymap_layout=us,de,bg
keymap_options=grp:rctrl_rshift_toggle

The output of weston --log=abc:

That's odd; we've never shown a visible keyboard-layout switcher! Maybe you had seen it in some other environment, but it's not a feature Weston has ever had.

If you were interested in developing the feature, I'd be happy to talk you through the process of doing so.

Probably I have seen the layout switcher in some other UI.
