Sounds like an X configuration problem. Does it work in other applications?
Does it work in the qt textedit example? Does it work in non-qt programs?

Huh.
Try turning off autocorrection, maybe?
Are you creating such a character with the compose key? (If i remember well, u umlaut does not exist on a normal French keyboard and I suppose that you are not talking about a French Swiss keyboard). Have a nice day! Le jeudi 26 Ao On Friday 27 August 2004 10:14, Daniel Moyne wrote:

Le vendredi 27 Ao I have tried with the current KWord 1.3.x and I cannot reproduce with dead keys (but I have a German keyboard. ^ and U gives û (u circumflex) correctly.) To comment #5: What I meant is that we need to know which keys are pressed to try to find the reason of the problem. The bug report suggested that it was a sequence like Compose key, u, ^ So my question was not wrong, as you answered that you used ^u (therefore dead keys.) (And if my question about the French Swiss keyboard has irritated you, sorry, but a French Swiss keyboard has the u umlaut somewhere. This would have made this bug very curious but it was needed to rule out this possibility.) Have a nice day! Le vendredi 27 Ao Reading bug #88151, I am getting the feeling that you get the characters in decomposed way, as defined in Unicode: first the letter, then the modifiers. But then why it does only show in KWord? Have a nice day! What is the exact Qt version you are using? Do you have the same problem in kbabel? (make sure to open a .po file first) Le jeudi 16 Septembre 2004 14:39, Waldo Bastian a i confirm this bug KDE Version 1.3.2 (KDE 3.3.0, SuSE) Application KOffice Word Processor Operating System Linux (i686) release 2.6.5-7.108-default Compiler gcc version 3.3.3 (SuSE Linux) kword don't accept accentuted characters... but work with kmail, kate... To comment #13: for SuSE, it is bug #88151 and Waldo Bastian has written: "This is probably caused by a bug in the SUSE Qt package (immodule patch). (SUSE BR44633)" Have a nice day!

I am told Mandrake applied the same Qt patch, this would explain it.
And no, the fact that it works in other kde/qt apps means nothing - KWord does
a few things differently, e.g. enabling key compression...

No.
Laurent removed the immodule patch. Try qt3-3.3.3-25mdk (Mandrake Cooker) please. Does it work fine with KWord? btw, Mandrake's immodule patch is old. Fedora applied qt-immodule-20040910. I packed it for Mandrake Cooker. You can get it (SRPM) at http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=109779&package_id=118615 Enjoy, Le mercredi 22 Septembre 2004 10:35, UTUMI Hirosi a > Rather than getting a source can I get a binary rpm ready for Mandrake ? You don't need to test my package. Laurent will not apply the patch. :-p Just try Laurent's libqt3-3.3.3-25mdk (Mandrake Cooker) please. Laurent disabled immodule patch on *-25mdk. If you can type accent on libqt3-3.3.3-25mdk + KWord, we can say "Qt-immodule breaks KWord". nicolasg said > Kate , Kwrite, Mail no problems !

I have installed alle related packages in 3.3.3-26mdk as I could only find 3.3.3-25mdk for sparc and I need i586 It does not change anything : Kword and Konsole do no accept keyboard key combinations for French accentuated characters as I would expect because all other KDE applications handling text work and therefore why Kword and Konsole would not !

The problem is caused by other things. You can report it to Mandrake Bugzilla. Thanks.

I'm not using other distro, so I don't know whether it is Mandrake's own problem or not.
Le vendredi 24 Septembre 2004 12:14, UTUMI Hirosi a So I suppose that this bug is fixed. i have this bug with kde 1.3.5 with suse 9.3 (kde 3.4) i can write é but i'm not able to do: è, ì... OK, I just saw the bug too with a self-compiled Qt-3.3.3, no custom patches applied. Upgrading to 3.3.4 helped. So for people who have no accentuated characters working in any Qt/KDE application (including e.g. kedit and konsole), the fix is simple: upgrade to Qt 3.3.4. |
