How to replace the speech input button with the dot button?

I am using the Xperia Chinese Input method , and when I switch to the English keyboard, the speech input button is at the dot's place, which lead to great inconvenient to me. When I am inputing a website address, I must click the number button and click the dot and switch to English keyboard to continue. I don't use the speech input, so is there a way to replace the speech input button with the dot button? I have already disabled the speech input in the setting, but it is still there.

It annoyed me so much.

I think i figured out the solution.

basically the author's problem has to do with him using the Xperia Chinese keyboard together with Google voice input.

He set the default keyboard as Xperia CHINESE keyboard ,instead of Xperia International  / English keyboard

While others have posted solutions for the Xperia International keyboard (English),

the author finds that it doesn't work.

Well,

I am using Xperia Z3 dual

I tried calling the helpline, but without much use.

The solution i believe is the same for both my phone and your Xperia.

Basically,

go to settings, language and input

tap the tool next to Xperia Chinese keyboard

click on voice input

then you can chooose to place the voice input button INSIDE the change language button

afterwards, you have your full-stop/period or 句號 back in the place, while the voice input MIC is now hidden inside the change language button and can be activated after long-pressing it.
