------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Jul 27 07:24:03 -0700 2005 ------- Okay, you're trying to get composed characters inside OO.o. First, are you using the SuSE provided OO.o? If so, there's no guaranty that the info below helps for your particular OO.o. This is for openoffice.org's webside provided OO.o: Composed characters are generally handled by the Xlib: means, if you're working in a C/POSIX locale compose sequences are not even defined. Use any kind of latin locale and compose key sequences work (prove in xterm). If you're working in an desktop environment such as kde or gnome the toolkit (qt resp. gtk) will handle character input. In case of gnome2.4 and above OO.o plugs gtk. Consequently event handling and character input are handled by gtk. If compose works e.g. with gedit it also works in OO.o. In case of kde there is currently no OO.o qt plugin available (but SuSE provided OO.o AFAIK has it) hence OO.o runs in its own vclplugin utilizing plain Xlib. See above for required locale setting for X. As a convenience hack OO.o implemented in its own plugin a fallback to en_US if running in C locale to explicitly enable compose (as many users trapped into this). In case of a SuSE provide qt plugin you probably can configure compose within kde. But as said above there's no guaranty that this works. Generally speaking it's always a good idea to have a locale set different than C or POSIX independent of what desktop environment is running (on SuSE you can set the LANG variable in ~/.profile file to permanently set the specific locale at the login). =>WFM. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
