Plasma is a cool guy in KDE4.And with it ,we can create some useful Plasmoid.But these widgets have a problem.You cann't input any chinese char in it.For example,one widget can use to help us write articles in twriter.But when I use fcitx or scim(input method),I found there is nothing after i type a word.What 's the problem.

Does this issue only occur with the twitter applet or does it affect all applets? For example, does the notes applet behave correctly?

Comment 4 Jason Stubbs 2008-08-02 04:15:51 UTC

Just noticed in the Qt 4.4.1 changelog:

- QGraphicsProxyWidget
    * [208773] Input methods now work properly for embedded widgets.

Can you try with Qt 4.4.1 please?

I updated qt to 4.4.1.
It became possible to input with SCIM in widgets again.

Comment 6 Jason Stubbs 2008-08-02 06:08:02 UTC

So it was an upstream issue that has been fixed then. Good to hear. :)
