Delay when switch keyboard layout

Question

I am new here on Ubuntu.

I am using 2 language keyboard layout Persian and when I press switch keyboard layout key, It shows language switch and delay about 1-2 sec before I can start to type again.

Is any possible way to remove this delay?

I found the answer on Reddit. As murilomentor said in his reply to Pacheko17:

You need to follow these steps:

1. Open the keyboard layout file for your language, example:-

   sudo nano /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/br
   

2. Comment the following line:

   modifier_map Mod3 { Scroll_Lock };
   

3. Logout and log in again.

Their original post:

1. Opened the keyboard layout file for my language, in my case:

   sudo nano /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/br
   

2. Commented the line:

   modifier_map Mod3 { Scroll_Lock };
   

3. Logged out and logged in again.

It worked for me!
