Description Harry 2016-09-11 16:29:17 UTC
In this version, there is no way to switch to any Chinese input methods within Fcitx.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Ctrl+F to open search collection
2.Use whatever way to switch to another language input method in Fcitx
3.try typing (in my case Chinese pinyin)

Actual Results:  
No input method is triggered. Stuck in English

Expected Results:  
Type in Chinese

The input method works fine everywhere but Amarok

Which desktop do you use? Is Amarok the only KDE4 application you tested this with?
FWIW: Amarok uses what the system provides, but there might be some problems if you do not use a KDE4 libraries based environment, against which Amarok is compiled.
