"Input Sources" button looks really out of place in Keyboard settings

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

I can reproduce this bug with Ubuntu 16.04. Here, just the text changed, but not its appearance: It now says Text Entry

Steps to reproduce:
1. Run gnome-control-center
2. Switch to Keyboard Panel, look in the lower left corner.

Pretty sure that has been like that for most of ever, however I do agree this looks out of place. This should be fixed in co-ordination with upstream.

Missed you on IRC, Have a look through all the other panels and see what they do with buttons.

Fix commited: https://code.launchpad.net/~indielives010/gnome-control-center/fixKeyboardPanelLayout/+merge/281088

Can you attach a screenshot when using adwaita.

Here is the look of gnome-control-center in adwaita, the buttons design fits the others like the Help Button in the Language Panel.

That screenshot looks the same as the last one ;( Also what help button, I hope you are not comparing it the Ubuntu "Language Support" panel, that is not included in gnome-control-center anymore with 16.04

Ok, finally done :)
Moved the LinkButton to the header, screenshot appended.
The new branch is here:

A few nitpicks
- Use a normal button, not the link button
- You seem to have broken the frame/window size of the keyboard panel, this should always remain the same as all other panels.
- It needs to be based on the xenial/3.18 branch, this is not something we could backport to trusty
- Screenshots are far more useful if they use all defaults, such as button layouts, fonts etc. Grab screenshots in a live session if need be.

Further the keyboard settings have been moved into universal-access panel for 3.20
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-control-center/commit/?id=1f192985ef1e18792151c1479be1f3c96c8f4f4c

actually seems I was wrong about the frame size, they do jump around a bit, so its probably ok as it.

Hey Tim,
so I got the following problem:
The input sources button is a linkbutton, which is not changeable into a
normal button without loosing its ability to open the other panel.
However, it seems to be not possible to change the design of this
linkbutton to make it look like a normal button. I asked on
StackOverflow how to do this, here is the link:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/34495313/set-the-style-of-gtklinkbuttons
But maybe you can help me earlier/better :)

did you update the callback? GtkButton wont have an activate-link signal.

I did, turned it to activate signal. But then, clicking the button just does nothing. So I tried changing the design of the LinkButton, without success :(

I think "activate" is actually fired on double click for GtkButton, you probably want to use "clicked"

AWESOME! THAT DID IT! :)
Didn't run the program under the newly installed Ubuntu Gnome yet, but as the source code is the most recent from pull-lp-source and I didn't do any changes to the layout of the program, it should look good in GNOME. Will submit this now to launchpad with bzr.

but you left the old button as well ;(

that is the wrong branch, if you want to use bzr then it is lp:~ubuntu-desktop/gnome-control-center/ubuntu

otherwise make a debdiff against the ubuntu source from pull-lp-source.

either way you changes need to be done as a quilt patch!

Ok, so here again, with the debdiff.

And the screenshot

The attachment "gnome-control-center_3.18.2-1ubuntu4.debdiff" seems to be a debdiff. The ubuntu-sponsors team has been subscribed to the bug report so that they can review and hopefully sponsor the debdiff. If the attachment isn't a patch, please remove the "patch" flag from the attachment, remove the "patch" tag, and if you are member of the ~ubuntu-sponsors, unsubscribe the team.
