Settings button missing in Grid layout

[[e-mail]]

Binary package hint: onboard

In the settings possible set the keyboard layout. I chose the one in which appear only letters, numbers, space, return, backspase and Shift. Now we can't open the settings and switch mode

Next to the onboard icon, there should also be an onboard-settings icon. Simply open onboard-settings by clicking on the icon or by typing the name in the terminal and the configuration window will open, where you can change layout.

I leave the bug open because the situation might be improved.

I do not have anywhere onboard-settings icon. Аnd never saw him.
It turns out that can be reached in to the settings only through the terminal
I have ubuntu 10.10 without any change.

I found this icon! It is included in SETTINS %)

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Francesco, did you have anything specific in mind back then? I could be wrong, but IMO an additional preferences button would just slow the scanning down, while not really helping either, since preferences aren't scanable.
