Hello, I do not know if there is another component that handles layout switching under GNOME, if it is not gnome-shell, please assign to the right component. After the upgrade to to F36, I noticed that switching layouts using the panel menu does not work. Clicking on the different layouts does nothing, nor does activating the menu with the mouse and using the keyboard to toggle the layout. There is no problem with default or user-assigned keyboard shortcuts. This is a session running on x11, if it makes any difference.
I could reproduce that once in a Gnome Xorg session running in qemu-kvm. But after rebooting the virtual machine, I can not reproduce it anymore. Currently I have ibus-1.5.26-8.fc36.x86_64 installed in that virtual machine (From: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-912bd4be77 )
I am unable to reproduce this with gnome-shell-42.2-1.fc36.x86_64 and ibus-1.5.26-8.fc36.x86_64
Created attachment 1887669 [details] Video showing that it works for me.. I am typing the key labelled `;` on the US English layout. When the US English layout is active, this produces a `;`. When the Portuguese (Brazil) layout is active, this produces a `ç`. As the video shows, I can switch between the two layouts using the Gnome paneŀ
Created attachment 1887732 [details] Video showing the problem Hello Mike, Thank you very much for looking into this. (In reply to Mike FABIAN from comment #1) > But after rebooting the virtual machine, I can not reproduce it anymore. > > Currently I have ibus-1.5.26-8.fc36.x86_64 installed in that virtual machine That's what I noticed on a second test system, indeed after the reboot it was possible to switch languages. I also went through the list of the updates, checked them one by one and they were all pushed to updates-testing after I had opened this bug. After testing a number of things (extensions, startup applications, settings) I finally discovered that the problem manifests when "Switch input sources individually for each window" is selected. When the same layout is used for all windows, the indicator works. Also, going from one option to the other doesn't show in gnome settings, it looks as if none is selected.

Is required for Fedora release processes, such as blocker bugs and freeze exceptions If this issue isn't needed for either of these two reasons, please: * create an issue with GNOME * add a link to the GNOME issue here * close this issue as CLOSED/UPSTREAM Thank you!
It's a matter of point of view, the bug is still present in F39 and it's one of those details that make us look bad. I've learned to live with it, but if I find the time, I'll open another issue in GNOME's bugtracker and add a link here.

Have you opened this issue in GNOME's bugtracker? I don't think anyone here will be looking into this bug so better open in upstream and discuss its fix there.
I don't see this with F40 or F41 either. I notice you were testing with Firefox.

Yeah, I kept it open mostly as a reminder for me, hoping that this time around I will find a moment to report this before the message disappears out of view in my inbox… (In reply to Jens Petersen from comment #11) > I don't see this with F40 or F41 either. It is still there, at least on F40. I haven't played with the settings in some time, but if I remember correctly, it's the combination of Xorg and having different layouts per window that triggers it. It is not an issue on Wayland. > I notice you were testing with Firefox. It happens with everything, not just Firefox.
