[Bug 1642513] [NEW] Deal with different keyboard layouts

 

Public bug reported:

This is a feature request for a wish list.

Often i forget to switch keyboard layouts before launching Do and end up
in front of Do's prompt in Russian layout, while my system's language is
English.  (I haven't tested Do with Russian as system's language.)

While the Do's prompt is open, keyboard layout switching hot keys do not
work (in my case it interprets them as input and starts suggesting
something).  I have to close the prompt, switch the layout to English,
and launch Do again.

I think there are different solutions to this problem that would make Do
more usable with multiple layouts:

  * make layout switching hot keys work when the prompt is open, or

  * add a preference to always temporally switch the layout to a give
one, or

  * perform search for all layouts simultaneously and combine the
results.
