Can't switch between two layouts with the same language #1

jcassette commented 8 years ago

Hi, I am using two different layouts having the same "French (France)" language:

The standard French layout
The Bépo layout (French equivalent of Dvorak)

Both options appear in RightKeyboard layout selection dialog, however they actually set the standard French layout anyway. Is there any way we could fix this? Thanks,

Bepo is not officially supported by Windows and I installed it from bepo.exe downloadable here : http://bepo.fr/wiki/Windows. I guess you did the same, Jcassette ? At the end, I'm not sure if the problem comes from rightkeyboard or bepo... Anyway, a solution would be welcome.

Based on my understanding of how rightkeyboard works, it is dependent upon the use of two different languages. The only reason that the input can be distinguished between the two keyboards is because they are set to use different languages—this is already beyond the scope of what is meant to be possible. I would recommend you somehow modify/customize the bepo keyboard to report that it uses a different language.
