Custom Keyboard at login screen

[lioth 4u]

Hello,

I think the question has already been asked but I can't find the answer.

Is it possible to add the Custom keyboard to the login screen?

and make it the default osx keyboard for all new users?

thank you in advance for your help

thanks.

are you sure it helps ?

i've created a custom keyboard with ukulele (Azerty FR layout on US qwerty macbook)

the layout is working well but i want to make it permanent and the system default (other said when i create a new user, it's this custom layout by default)

is that the same method ?

on osx sonoma

thanks again

I don’t know whether the fix suggested in that other forum will do what you want. If you try it, let us know the results.

Even if it may work, a custom keylayout may have internal errors which may negatively affect the system. Definitely I discourage all those who intend to force the system accept a custom keylayout as default system keylayout, including for the login psswd. At a given moment, after an update/upgrade, that very keylayout may put a major problem.

Thanks for your help. 

Is it Maybe least possible to add the custom layout available and/or by défaut for all existing and New user?

[Sorin Paliga]

Yes, of course, put it at the level 

/System/Library/Keyboard Layouts.

It is even best to put it there, some keylayouts behave eratically when placed at the logged-in user level.

My apologies: not to System etc. but to /Library/Keyboard Layouts.

There are some tricks to do that, but I do not encourage this.
