Ah, yes, that works for me too. What doesn't work though is the icon changing when I switch between hiragana/katakana. In KDE, GNOME, and earlier versions of Ubuntu (I want to say this worked in 12.04, but I'm not 100% sure on that), the icon will change from あ to ア or Ａ (and half- width equivalents) depending on the current mode. I've tried with both Anthy and Mozc and neither update their icon as expected. It seems as though newer versions of Unity, or whatever handles the display of the indicator icon, only updates the input method icon when the actual input method changes and doesn't pick up when the current input method changes it's typing mode. It seems like something simple to fix, but unfortunately I just don't have time to dig in to the code.

There is no way for knowing if one is inputing text using either romaji, hiragana or katakana. Also it does not show any visual hint that the input method is changed after changing it. Ubuntu release name: Description: Ubuntu 13.10 Release: 13.10 Package version: anthy: Installed: 9100h-16ubuntu3 Candidate: 9100h-16ubuntu3 Version table: *** 9100h-16ubuntu3 0 500 http://jp.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ saucy/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status Expected behavior: As it was on previous version (before saucy) ,when using input method for romaji then the icon was the JP letters on white background and when using hiragana/katakana the icon would change into anthy icon. This way, there was a way to know which input method is used. This behavior is also present in osx and windows. What happens instead: There is only the default anthy icon regardless of the input metho used. If the key to change input methods is pressed, then the input method changes but the icon stays the same.
