I already had the problem last year and someone in the community gave me the fix. but I cannot find it again

If you turn it on from the Japanese IM, it should stay on your desktop even when you leave that IM for some other keyboard.

Click on the icon for the Japanese input system in the menu bar at the top right of the screen and then go to the bottom. You should see an item called "type using kana table".

thanks. I need to get the international characters panel menu but now I am on macOSMonterrey and I cannot seem to find a way to get it back that gave me a small kana alphabet that remained on the desktop, to use on occasion . I had it on my desktop for last 2 years but I had to restart my PC and it did not come back.
thanks Tom. Finally got it working as it was before. too bad that every update improves things but causes also collateral damage.
I'm back in normal operation. thanks a milion, Tom. Merry Xmas and a Very Happy New Year 2023
Have you looked in Font Book for the font? I have two kana fonts:
The one on the left has to be downloaded before it can be activated for use.
You should see this in the top right corner, with the input menu in the middle
the fix was indicated to me by Tom Gewecke on Dec 20, 2021. but now my iMac has been upgraded to macOSMonterrey and I cannot find the international characters panel showing the flags.
thanks a lot Tom. I still have the correct answer that you gave me 2 years ago but now I am on macOSMonterrey and I cannot find the "flag" on my desktop.
yes. I do show these but I don't want to change my keyboard, just to put the kana back on my desktop.
