Description Jonathan Ryshpan 2007-07-03 23:21:21 UTC 
Version:           0.9.2-final (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs
OS:                Linux

My keyboard is set up to use the compose key (currently the RtWindows key) to enter special characters like č and Š (which were both entered in this note using Compose-<-c etc.)  This doesn't work in digikam; when I enter Compose-<-c into digikam nothing happens, the cursor doesn't move.  On the other hand, it is possible to paste these characters in from the clipboard, so it doesn't look like a font problem.

Jonathan,

There is nothing special do by digiKam here. the widget used to edit comments come from KDE/Qt. 

This report is invalid in digiKam component...
