## Switchable keyboard layouts
|
||||
|
||||
An example of a switchable keyboard layout between US and RU, where you switch
|
||||
between them with <key>SUPER</key>+<key>A</key> (<key>SUPER</key>+<key>Ф</key>)
|
||||
|
||||
```ini
|
||||
bind=SUPER,A,exec,hyprctl keyword input:kb_layout ru
|
||||
bind=SUPER,Cyrillic_ef,exec,hyprctl keyword input:kb_layout us
|
||||
The easiest way to accomplish this is to set this using XKB settings, for example:
|
||||
```
|
||||
input {
|
||||
kb_layout = us,pl
|
||||
kb_options = grp:alt_shift_toggle
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can apply this to any number of languages, mix'n'match, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
Please note that if a keyboard layout has a different alphabet, mappings for "a"
|
||||
"b" "c" will be replaced with mappings from that language. (meaning, e.g.
|
||||
<key>SUPER</key> + <key>D</key> will not work on a `ru` layout, because the russian layout does not
|
||||
have a <key>D</key>.)
|
||||
|
||||
{{< hint type=important >}}
|
||||
After Hyprland v0.10.3beta, the above statement may be false. Hyprland (since *after* v0.10.3beta) will now ALWAYS use the global xkb settings for keybind parsing.
|
||||
|
||||
Thus, if you have a global layout set to `us`, and per-keyboard layout as `ru`, your keyboard's layout will be russian, but the keybinds will parse based on
|
||||
the `us` layout (e.g. <key>SUPER</key> + <key>E</key>)
|
||||
{{< /hint >}}
|
||||
|
||||
If you are unsure about the key names of your chosen alphabet, refer to the
|
||||
[xkbcommon keysym header](https://github.com/xkbcommon/libxkbcommon/blob/master/include/xkbcommon/xkbcommon-keysyms.h).
|
||||
The keysym name in Hyprland is the XKB define name without the `XKB_KEY_`.
|
||||
|
||||
Generally, for switched layouts, it's recommended to bind by a keycode.
|
||||
|
||||
{{< hint type=important >}}
|
||||
|
||||
For proper switching, or avoiding problems / bugs, it's recommended to switch per-device configs instead of global ones.
|
||||
The first layout defined in the input section will be the one used for binds.
|
||||
|
||||
See [per-device input configs](../Keywords/#per-device-input-configs).
|
||||
For example: `us,ua` -> config binds would be e.g. `SUPER, A`, while on `ua,us` -> `SUPER, Cyryllic_ef`
