[bug] Odd behavior of text input combo when changing layout numbers from 7 to 6
Text input combo box for "active keyboard" opens a subpage when enabled layouts are 7 or more. But changing them back to less than 7 can make problems.
To reproduce:
- Enable 7 keyboard layouts;
- Open the "Active keyboard" combo box;
- Go to layouts page again and deselect one/some in order to have less than 7 enabled;
- Now try to open the combo. The combo gets highlighted but won't show any options – a screenshot.
Since it's solved when you go back to main page of Settings, I consider this as a minor bug; however needs to be fixed for the best experience.
Who uses that menu anyway? Just hold down spacebar as told by the little description text ;)
But if this affects all combo boxes, it needs to be fixed.
