This actually worked - thank you! Finally get Dvorak-Qwerty to show up at login screen. That's been bugging me for months.

Hi I'm on Big Sur 11.6 and it still doesn't work. I don't see the gear even when i add a third or fourth language. I still only see Azerty French on the login screen instead of American like I want.

This is no longer helpful in Ventura with Apple M2 silicon, but I very much appreciate your having taken the time to share this obscure but, to some users, very important information.
