This feature has been was available on GNOME since forever. I'm still waiting for Microsoft to steal another nice thing: MRU (Most Recently Used) keyboard layout switching. If you have two often used keyboard layouts A and B, and less used layouts C, D, E, then pressing the switch shortcut once will switch between A and B without the need to cycle through C, D, E.
- vladvasiliu 2mo agoI never really cared for Gnome so I've never actually used it, but I can't say I'm surprised. But this has worked in KDE since version 3, like, 20 years ago? And also with pasystray running under i3, since before win11 was a thing. They both support scrolling with the touchpad, too. It drove me up a wall not being able to do this when I had to use Windows at work. As for your MRU layout thing, I'm not sure I'd like it. While I like MRU for alt-tab, i like my not-so-often-used functions to be predictable. For this specific case, I always use us-macintosh, so I'd like to be sure that if I press the shortcut X times I'll get Y layout, without having to remember the order in which I used them. Now, to be fair, in my case I only have US-Mac available since it does everything I need.
