Is there a way to make the input method persist per window?

Post by eyalzek »

I am using both English and Hebrew on my cinnamon, and I suffer from all kinds of issues while my input method is set to Hebrew;
chrome keyboard shortcuts do not work, synergy doesn't really work properly, typing inside a VM mostly doesn't work (I have to change back to English to accomplish any of these)...

I have pretty much gotten used to it, the only thing that really bugs me is that cinnamon can't remember my input method per window. If I'm typing in English in the terminal, but in between having a conversation in Hebrew, changing back and forth a couple of times a minute (or more) can be very annoying.

Is there a way to configure such a thing?

I found a solution by posting on that bug card you suggested, installed this:

and it just works.

Thanks for the help
