can’t set correct keyboard layout (physical keyboard)

Hello! I’d like to use a physical keyboard instead of on-screen ones, but it's impossible to set the correct keyboard layout (I don’t use U.S. QWERTY keyboards).

edit: Here is what I do: Settings > System > Language & input > Physical keyboard > [Name of the keyboard] > [select the keyboard (previously enabled) that I want to use] Then when I type something on my physical keyboard, the layout remains in qwerty.

(I had the same problem previously when LineageOS 18.1 was running on this device. I also have LineageOS 20 running on another device, and on that one, I can set the correct keyboard layout for my physical keyboards. So I guess the solution to this issue/misbehavior may exist somewhere in more recent versions of DivestOS or LineageOS)

Thanks! ☺

Works for me on 20.0

Settings > System > Language & input > Physical keyboard > [Name of the keyboard] > Set up keyboard layours > choose what you want

Android 11/18.1 may simply not have this feature.

Yes, this is what I do. But it doesn't work. The layout I select is not taken into account. It remains a qwerty layout.
