 +<note>If you usually switch between two keyboard layouts and you don't need to display the current layout in the status bar, you might also place the following code in your ''~/.i3/config'' file:
 +  setxkbmap -layout de,gb
 +  setxkbmap -option 'grp:ctrl_alt_toggle'
 +This will let you toggle between the two layouts using <key>Ctrl</key>+<key>Alt</key>.
