Re: [Bug 1786344] Re: Default IBus input method ignored in live session

Another good idea!  English (US).

BTW, when I clicked on the language update, Ubuntu would install a bunch of
non-US English locales.  Totally unnecessary, annoying, unprofessional, and
confusing.  Probably this should go to another bug report?

Re: [Bug 1786344] Re: Default IBus input method ignored in live session

2019-07-03 Thread Ping-Wu
Oops.  False alarm.  The Chinese input frame seems to be working OK in
190703 daily build.    However, the first entry of the input method is
labeled as "汉语“ (Chinese)。  Either that should be changed to "英语”
(English),because it is indeed an English keyboard.  Or assign
ibus-libpinyin as the input method for "汉语" and remove the ibus-libpinyin
("智能拼音")entry.  The latter is, of course, preferred.  Please see attached
screenshot.

Anyway, huge improvement!

Tried 19.10 by selecting simplified Chinese during booting the daily build
iso.  Was able to toggle (shift-key) between Chinese and English inputs.
This is good!

However, the ability to input Chinese characters was activated only after I
clicked on the third option "汉语(智能拼音)“。 For a Chinese user, this extra step
should not be necessary.

Also as shown in the attached screenshot, the first (top) two entries are
confusing and have no function.  Should be removed.

I have tried today's daily built iso of 18.04.  I selected simplified
Chinese during boot. Still couldn't input Chinese.

Will try 19.10 later.

Re: [Bug 1786344] Re: Default IBus input method ignored in live session

2019-07-02 Thread Ping-Wu
How do I test it?  I'm interested in seeing Chinese input method being able
to be activated and behaving the way it is expected in a LiveUSB,
preferably in Ubuntu 18.04.3 iso.  Is there any pre-release version of the
18.04.3 iso available?
