Lyx BUG with CJK InputMethod on Linux

2019-10-19 Thread zecy chiu
Hi, dear Lyx developers,

I use Linux and have some trouble with typing Chinese in Lyx: the candidate
box can't follow the cursor when editing with *Ibus* or *fcitx*.
[image: Screenshot from 2019-10-19 18-36-20.png]
I noticed that Lyx was written in Qt5 which fully supports the two input
framework, in fact, they work well in other Qt5-based software like *Texstudio.
*So I think this may be a bug of Lyx
*.*

You can reproduce it on  Linux system, here are some info about my
environment:

OS: Manjaro 18.1.1 Juhraya
Kernel: x86_64 Linux 4.19
DE: GNOME 3.34.1
WM: Mutter
IM: ibus, ibus-libpinyin

Anyway thanks for your works. It'd be better if you can do something with
it.

Hi,

THe support for InputMethod is done a bit by hand right now, because the 
workarea of LyX is completely built by ourselves. I do not have any idea 
of the culprits of Chinese editing.


What version of LyX is that, by the way?

I would be taker of help in this department, even concerning the set up 
of things like ibus for keyboard switching. We have issues with that in 
LyX 2.4.0dev.


Best regards,
JMarc
