Bug ID: 457387
Summary: Compose Key only works in certain applications
Product: frameworks-kglobalaccel
Version: 5.96.0
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Reporter: 0lc6wm...@mozmail.com

SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use the compose key to type special characters
OBSERVED RESULT
In some applications, the compose key works as expected. In other applications,
the compose key does not do anything: if I press the compose key, the next
couple keystrokes will be "eaten" (no letters typed, special characters or
otherwise), and then typing resumes normally.
Tested applications where it works:
KWrite, Dolphin, Discover, and any OS level UI (search bars etc.)
Tested applications where it does not work:
Firefox, Thunderbird, VSCode, Signal
EXPECTED RESULT
Compose key should work in all applications where text can be entered
