  • Quick Toggle Keyboard Layout?

    Posted by Mike Fournier on August 14, 2025 at 11:19 pm

    Hi there,

    This has been a bit tough to search for, and none of my colleagues knew if it is possible.
    I keep a couple of keyboard layouts saved that are better for specific workflows.

    Is there a way to map a layout to a shortcut key? Rather than having to go to Settings and select it manually?

    Thanks!

    FOUND IT, what a joyous day. I’ll post the solution here in hopes that future generations can find this faster.
    You can assign any named setting to a workspace layout, so if you duplicate your preferred/current workspace and type the name of your keyboard layouts in its properties window, you can then assign each workspace to a keyboard shortcut using the command palette (ctrl/cmd+3) and you’re all set.
