fcitx/fcitx5

fcitx5 not working under Chrome and only Chrome (X11)

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Summary

When Chrome is in focus, the fcitx5 is unable to switch the input method.

I can use fcitx5 to input Chinese in other applications, e.g., terminal.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. The default layout I use is English (US) and fcitx-chinese-addons (pinyin)
  2. I opened Chrome 127.0.6533.72, and typed (Ctrl+Space), I'd expect that the input dialog to pop up.
  3. fcitx5 is not popping up.

Expected Behavior

fcitx5 dialog pop up and I can type in words...

  2. XIM_SERVERS on root window:

    Xim server name is the same with that set in the environment variable.

  3. XIM encoding:

    Your LC_CTYPE is set to C whose encoding is not UTF-8. You may have trouble committing strings using XIM.

    Following error may not be accurate because guessing Qt version from path depends on how your distribution packages Qt. It is not a critical error if you do not use any Qt application with certain version of Qt or you are using text-input support by Qt under Wayland.
