Current Behavior

When I change the language, the letters on the virtual keyboard icons disappear (see video below). I've also noticed that sometimes they reappear randomly. This problem started recently

Hi, how do you "change the language". It is not the language setting in monkeytype, is it?

Hi, yes it is not the language in settings. I regularly use two languages and in my problem i reffer to combination "alt shift" to change the language.
I need to change beetwen languages because of the type of my keyboard (split). There are different symbols on different layers

thanks for the feedback. We recently changed for alt/alt-shift to show the correct layer and dont fallback to the base layer. The layout you are using has no alt or alt-shift layer defined, that is why the keymap gets empty.

Okay, so for this problem to go you need to place second language in settings, but this feature isn't available yet. Did I understand that correctly?
