Would it be possible to separate the selection of a language and the selection of a keyboard layout?
35 votesWhat you are saying makes sense, and would not be hard to implement. However the trick is to keep the configuration simple for the user. It starts to feel clunky when you are having to select layout and language separately.
One idea might be to have an “freeze layout” switch which if unset (the default) leaves behavior as now. If it IS set, that layout stays unchanged, and only the language changes when selecting by the regular mechanism (either quick-switch or from list in settings).

My country is Belgium, and I most often write in either English or Flemish (the Belgian variant of Dutch). My_Windows PC's keyboard layout is Belgian Azerty, which is what I also use wherever else possible. A_French keyboard layout is a close match, which is what I can select in TypeFinity to get an Azerty layout. However, if I set my TypeFinity language to English (UK), then I'm stuck with only Qwerty and I can't switch to Azerty layout the way I can under Microsoft Windows.
My wishful thinking is clear : to have the option of choosing English language for TypeFinity, while also having a possibility to select a (Belgian) Azerty keyboard layout for the TypeFinity on-screen keyboard..
