Re: Fwd: no accents with dead keys (SOLVED)
I'll answer the questions Jose put forward. I have 2 PC both with Fedora 32 installed (english USA), the same software and using mate as a desktop. The only difference is the keyboard, one has spanish keyboard (installed as spanish with dead keys) and the other has an english keyboard (with international english, USA, with dead keys) and in both the lyx behaviour is the same, with qt5 the dead keys are dead and with qt4 they work; are there other options to add?. The lyx version is 2.3.5.2 Regards Jorge On Sun, Dec 13, 2020 at 5:20 PM José Abílio Matos wrote: > On Wednesday, November 11, 2020 4:11:18 PM WET jorge hernando wrote: > > > Hi Jose > > > > > > I searched old e-mails and I believe I can confirm it's a bug in qt5 > that > > > ts triggered by un unknown mechanism.

What I meant are "keyboard input methods", they are used for languages like Chinese or Japanese where the keyboard does not hold all the characters. I am asking if it is a question of configuration. In my case I use kde, calling System Settings->Hardware->Input devices- >Keyboard. There I can choose several items, like the keyboard type, variant (with and without dead keys) and other more advance options. As I have told I remember to had problems like that but it was a long time ago.
