xfce4-xkb-plugin - An Xfce4 XKB Layouts panel plugin.
https://docs.xfce.org/panel-plugins/xfce4-xkb-plugin
Information
This plugin allows you to setup and use multiple (currently up to 4 due to X11 protocol limitation) keyboard layouts.
You can choose the keyboard model, what key combination to use to switch between the layouts, the actual keyboard layouts, the way in which the current layout is being displayed (country flag image or text) and the layout policy, which is whether to store the layout globally (for all windows), per application or per window.
If a certain flag is missing, the plugin will fallback to displaying the layout as text.
The plugin detects any change in the layout configuration (e.g. setxkbmap invocations) and reconfigures itself to use the new settings.
The plugin shows a small black circle with a thin white outline in the bottom right corner of the flag image if the current layout is the second variant configured for some language. If the display mode is set to "text" then a little dot is displayed as a subscript of the layout text.
There is a hidden (not available in the GUI) setting - "never_modify_config". If this setting is set to "true" in the configuration file, then the plugin will not modify the layout configuration under any circumstances (currently even when the configuration is modified through the settings dialog). This option is for users who wish to configure some XKB options, which are not present in the GUI and thus are limited by the plugin. These users can use the plugin so that it only displays the active layouts.
Known limitations and bugs
Currently if one sets any Xkb options, besides the grp: ones they will be lost the next time the plugin is started. Even more - only the first grp: option present in the running configuration will be stored in the config file and thus only it will be restored the next time the plugin is started. This will be resolved in future versions.
