    Switching to previous keyboard layout when I have 3 layouts


    Hi, I'm Windows and Linux user. Also I have 3 keyboard layouts. I use two of them often, and the third less often. In my Ubuntu when I press Alt+Shift Win+Space my keyboard switches to PREVIOUS layout and if I want to switch to third one I press it two times. In my Windows keyboard switches only sequentially between 3 layouts. Is there a possibility by clicking Alt+Shift switch to previous, not to next layout?

    :)

    switching keyboard layouts between devices

    I recently bought a surface book on a holiday to USA and it has a US keyboard layout. When I set this device to use the US keyboard layout it switched all of the other devices on my account to suit. How can I set the surface book to a US keyboard Layout
    but keep my desktop, laptop and tablet on the UK keyboard layout (which is the keyboard layout they all use) but still all attached to the my Microsoft account?

    Step by step instructions would be appreciated for an idiot.

    Thanks

  3. Randomly switching to unwanted keyboard layout

    When I type in French I use the Canadian Multilingual Standard layout. This is what I have configured in my settings and it is what worked fine for me for years until a week or two ago (which suggests the April update may have had something to do with it).

    Now when I switch to French I find that I am often in another layout which I believe to be the Canadian French layout, although I am not completely sure. It is similar to the Canadian multilingual with the most notable difference being that the è and the / are swapped round. I have never chosen the Canadian French keyboard in my preferences and it isn't listed there now. Canadian Multilingual is what is listed.

    What's even more annoying is that the layout seems to switch randomly between Canadian Multilingual and Canadian French while I am typing, so I am never really sure what is going to happen when I try to type an è.

    How can I get my keyboard to consistently be Canadian Multilingual when I am typing in French?
