Fast switch input source via CapsLock button in Ubuntu 17.10
I updated my Ubuntu version to 17.10 and I want to configure switching to next input source via CapsLock button. I tried to set CaspLock in keyboard setting, but I cant because nothing happening.
I did actions explained here How to switch input language on Caps Lock in Ubuntu 15.10 Gnome 3.16 and it works, but now when I switching input source I see a pop-up (like as pop-up that shows switching application windows) and must wait a few seconds until it disappears.
How I can resolve my problem?
Solution 1:
By trial and (a lot of) error, this works for me (I'm not sure whether the first three steps are required).
- Open
Settings
(the default system setting app). - Go to
Devices -> Keyboard
and pressReset All...
. - Close the
Settings
app. - Install
gnome-tweak-tool
and open it. - Go to
Keyboard & Mouse -> Additional Layout Options
- Seek for
Switching to another layout
and unchecked every options under that setting. - Restart the
Tweaks
app. - Repeat step 5-6 again, only this time make sure you check the one and only
Caps Lock
option. - Close the
Tweaks
app, now you should use the caps lock button to switch language without popup menu to delay the input :D
