Ubuntu keyboard shortcut to select specific language?

Question

ubuntu

In Ubuntu, of course, there are options in the settings for "next source" and "previous source" when choosing a language. But how to make it so that with a certain combination the English folding is included, and with another Russian?
For example: LShift+LAlt turns on EN (it doesn't matter which one is currently on), and LShift+LCtrl turns on RU. Maybe?

Answer 1

You need to put Tweak or use another keyboard shortcut.

Answer 2

Yes, it's possible. I will not fully solve your problem, but here's how I set it up. Right Alt is one layout, left Alt is another.

// ~/.config/xkb/symbols/custom
xkb_symbols "default" {
  replace key <LALT> { [ ISO_Last_Group ] };
  replace key <RALT> { [ ISO_First_Group ] };
};

// .xinitrc
# See full list of combinations http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libX11/plain/nls/en_US.UTF-8/Compose.pre
setxkbmap -layout "us+custom(default),ru(winkeys)" -option "" -compat "complete+custom(latch)" -print | xkbcomp -I"$HOME/.config/xkb" - "${DISPLAY%%.*}"

Full config is here .

It's not a fact that this article will answer your question in its original form, but at least it's a fairly broad answer about keyboard shortcuts in Ubuntu.

If you have Gnome DE, you can use the Tweak program.
Keyboards & mouse section -> additional Layout -> Switching to another layout
