Changing the keyboard language does not work in PhpStorm on Windows 7

Question

I am using PhpStorm 8.0.3 on Windows 7 . This is great for me against other IDEs that I previously used, such as Dreamweaver and Sublime. But for me this is a strange problem.

I use two languages ​​English and Persian. There are no problems writing code in English . But when I change the Persian language to Shift + Alt (for writing Persian text), I cannot return to English, and I have to restart PhpStorm to solve this problem!

Of course, this problem is not permanent and occurs only occasionally.

Who can solve this problem?

Answer 1

ATM is not a solution to the problem on the part of the IDE. You can read the whole chain here: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEABKL-6290

Workaround: Assign an additional shortcut to a specific language (in this case, in English)

In the Windows language bar - Settings ... - Additional key settings - in English (for example, Ctrl + 0 )
