Ok. I started with using only "Chinese (Pinyin)", which works just fine.
I then opened "Language and Region" setting, removed "Chinese (Pinyin)"
and added "Chinese (Intelligent Pinyin)". Now the system bar shows
"Chinese (Intelligent Pinyin)" is selected. I tried to input Chinese
into the following inputs in various applications and they all not work.
I tried using "shift".
- text area in Chrome browser (this comment)
- URL in Chrome browser
- gedit
- shell (ctrl+alt+t)
- LibreOffice Write
Just some guess, I previously installed & used fcitx & Google Pinyin. Is
that a problem? I understand if this problem seems only relate to my
particular settings and you guys have priorities, that's fine. However
if you wish to get to the bottom of this problem, let me know what else
I can do.
Below are command outputs:

Title:
Cannot input Chinese if only "Chinese (Intelligent Pinyin)" is set
Status in ibus-libpinyin package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
See also https://github.com/libpinyin/ibus-libpinyin/issues/184
Ubuntu 19.04. If I only install "Chinese (Intelligent Pinyin)", after
pressing 'super+space' input is switched to Pinyin (can be seen from
the icon on system bar). However it still input English directly. Even
if I tried 'shift' button it's still the same.
If I install "Chinese (Pinyin)" it works all perfect. If I install
both "Chinese (Pinyin)" and "Chinese (Intelligent Pinyin)", both
works.
So, seems something is missing? Something required by Intelligent
Pinyin but only installed with Pinyin?
