I would like to know how to disable/remove the keyboard/language indication from the gnome top panel in Ubuntu Gnome 16.04.
Thanks

Did you try to remove all input sources but the one you use?– Gunnar HjalmarssonNov 28, 2017 at 3:36

@GunnarHjalmarsson not sure how to do that, I believe English (UK) and English (US) are both and the only two options and I really don't need English (US) to be there as I will only ever be using English(UK) and the UK keyboard layout. So how would I be able to go ahead and remove the option of English (US) ? and i presume this will ensure the icon goes away as there are no longer multiple input options? Thanks– peaks95Nov 28, 2017 at 3:57

On Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, with gnome-flashback, the keyboard applet look like this:
This icon in applet indicator cannot be easily removed as it used to be (a tick in the keyboard preference was available in the previous Ubuntu version)
But this command does the trick:
gsettings set com.canonical.indicator.keyboard visible false

No such schema “com.canonical.indicator.keyboard”on Ubuntu 20.04… Jan 7, 2021 at 17:25
You can do it by removing other input sources than Chinese.
gnome-control-center -> region and language -> input source, delete others except zh-hans, then the indicator disappears right away.

2The answer is about hiding the icon, not removing other input sources. One can use two keyboard layouts at the same time and want to remove the icon. Jan 7, 2021 at 17:24
