    Hi , When i run QT virtual keyboard on my device layout is this 98f07e7e-e220-49c1-8af0-937904ad53a1-image.png

    but on QT website default layout for keyboard is like this 1921ddc7-2ef4-430b-be84-ae2f4354f3a4-image.png

    Why it is two default are different ? and how can i have second layout instead of first ?

      @vkey Not tried with this specific Qt component, but in general locale specific details on unix come from the 'locale' concept.

      This is typically set by some nice GUI, in KDE for instance. But if you are using just a bare setup without some desktop environment you'll want to check your locale.

      echo $LANG
      echo $LANGUAGE

      from the same shell you start your app with:
      'export LANG=en_GB.UTF-8'

      For more details, check https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Locales

        @vkey
        The example on our website is a macOS virtual keyboard.
        Just by looking at the colors of your version, it appears to me that you are using another operating system.

          To be clear, the word "layout" to me made me think about one having the "Z" on the top row and the other having the "Y" there.

            Hi Tom,
            Yours is Slovenian, which according to Wikipedia is part of the QWERTZ empire.
            The one on our website is British, which is QWERTY.
            By googling, I also found this older link, where someone claiming to speak on behalf of all Slovenes (including other parts of the Balkans) urged Apple to support Slovenian QWERTZ.
            => Ne vidim problem!
            Lijep pozdrav

              you realize I'm not OP?

              I think I answered the question in the first reply.. Lets see if OP comes back and helps us settle this :-)

                  Thank you for the Reply and sorry for the confusion caused because of the different locale setting in my screen shots.
                  @TomZ yes with the layout i mean positioning of the keys . Specially the last line , I would like to have hide keyboard button in the last line instead of clicking on Setting button in first layout .
                  @Axel-Spoerl I am using yocto Linux and Qt version 6.5.1 .
                  Does QT have different default layout in different OS ?

                    The layout in terms of QWERTZ / QWERTY and all the special keys depends on your locale.
                    How exactly the keyboard is shaped / designed, that is OS dependent.
