    Hi,

    You don't need to rebuild the whole Qt.
    Get the module sources and then use the classic qmake/make/make install.

    Take the time to checkout if there's any option you can passe to get more locale supported.

          I just copy the source from git repository.

          1. qmake qtvirtualkeyboard.pro
          2. make
          3. make install

            Try with qmake "CONFIG+=lang-all".

                  Hi,

                  You are trying to build the module that is provided with Qt 5.7.1 with the Qt version installed by your distribution which is 5.3.2. Use the full path to your 5.7.1 qmake when building the module.

                    I worked for me now too.
                    I did it in Qt Creator. Open the project and:
                    -In "Build Step" qmake, add in additional arguments: CONFIG+=lang-all
                    -Add Build Step "make" with argumant "install"

                      Hello,

                      I'm using c++ and qt quick to develop my app and it runs on raspberry pi. I have a qml file called KeyboardPanel.qml and it has the following:

                      import QtQuick 2.7
import QtQuick.VirtualKeyboard 2.1
import QtQuick.VirtualKeyboard.Settings 2.0

InputPanel {

    id: inputPanel
    Component.onCompleted:{
        VirtualKeyboardSettings.styleName = "retro"
        console.log("locales available: " + VirtualKeyboardSettings.availableLocales)
        console.log("Locale before changing it: " + VirtualKeyboardSettings.locale)
        VirtualKeyboardSettings.locale = "ru_RU";
        console.log("Locale after changing it: " + VirtualKeyboardSettings.locale)
        VirtualKeyboardSettings.customLayoutsOnly = true
    }

    y: 5000
    x: 5000
    height: 600
    width: 800
    states: State {
        name: "visible"
        when: inputPanel.active
        PropertyChanges {
            target: inputPanel
            y: 450
            x: 550
        }
    }
    transitions: Transition {
        from: ""
        to: "visible"
        reversible: true
        ParallelAnimation {
            NumberAnimation {
                properties: "y"
                duration: 500
                easing.type: Easing.InOutQuad
            }
        }
    }
}

                      The keyboard shows up and works fine on text fields, but I cannot add additional languages.

                      Thanks in advance!
