Actually, this method "insertText" gets called when the user commits text generated from an input method, which in this case, is from Finnish keyboard layout []https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blame/master/src/java.desktop/macosx/native/libawt_lwawt/awt/AWTView.m#L946 I don't think there is any docs for it and most of it came along with the macos port. The "complex" char is basically the "aStringIsComplex" condition I am talking about. As per the conditions written in this method []https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blame/master/src/java.desktop/macosx/native/libawt_lwawt/awt/AWTView.m#L975-L991 [] the Input method event is generated or CInputMethod#insertText for that **particular language** is called only when these conditions are satisfied. If these conditions are not met, then keyevent gets handled by CPlatformResponder#handleKeyEvent without taking "current "language " into account "s" is therefore routed through CInputMethod#insertText by satisfying the condition so that it gets inserted as per Finnish "language" selected. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/7262
