Is this still happening to you in Plasma 5.21? Yes. I confirmed today with Plasma 5.21 from KDE Neon. Dear Bug Submitter, This bug has been in NEEDSINFO status with no change for at least 15 days. Please provide the requested information as soon as possible and set the bug status as REPORTED. Due to regular bug tracker maintenance, if the bug is still in NEEDSINFO status with no change in 30 days the bug will be closed as RESOLVED > WORKSFORME due to lack of needed information. For more information about our bug triaging procedures please read the wiki located here: https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Bug_triaging If you have already provided the requested information, please mark the bug as REPORTED so that the KDE team knows that the bug is ready to be confirmed. Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone! just forgot to change status (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #1) > Is this still happening to you in Plasma 5.21? It is happening to me too. SUMMARY When logged in with wayland, ibus candidate selection window does not follow the insertion pointer for some apps and does follow for some others. For example; the selection window does follow the insertion pointer for Discord, Google Chrome, OnlyOffice etc; but does not follow for LibreOffice, Firefox, Telegram etc. It works as expected in Gnome for both X11 and Wayland but on Plasma it works only on X11. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Log in with wayland 2. Type with an ibus input method which uses candidate selection window; such as: typing booster. 3. Notice that the candidate selection window is either at the top left or at its last used position. OBSERVED RESULT The candidate selection window does not follow the insertion pointer (the position the user is typing at) for all apps. EXPECTED RESULT The candidate selection window should follow the insertion pointer for all apps. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Fedora Linux 38 KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.6 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.108.0 Qt Version: 5.15.10 Kernel Version: 6.4.8-200.fc38.x86_64 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 8 × 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-1135G7 @ 2.40GHz Memory: 15.4 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® Xe Graphics Manufacturer: Acer Product Name: TravelMate P214-53 System Version: V1.43 The candidate window does follow the insertion pointer for some apps. (Check my previous comment in this bug_report.) And does not follow the insertion pointer for some other apps. The issue is still not resolved completely. ibus recently gained proper Wayland support, which gets used in Fedora 39. Is the problem still happening with that?

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone! This bug has been in NEEDSINFO status with no change for at least 30 days. The bug is now closed as RESOLVED > WORKSFORME due to lack of needed information. For more information about our bug triaging procedures please read the wiki located here: https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Bug_triaging Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone! Why did you set this back to reported? The question has not been answered ibus-ui-gtk3, IM panel provided by IBus upstream now works with Wayland. Its candidate window is placed under the cursor. However KDE's input method panel (aka. KIM Panel) still does not work under Wayland session. Tested another IME `fcitx5`. Kimpanel works with it under Wayland. Trying to test `ibus`, but in Arch, the desktop file explicitly disabled panel with in the cmdline: `/usr/lib/ibus/ibus-ui-gtk3 --enable-wayland-im --exec-daemon --daemon-args "--xim --panel disable"` I modified `--panel disable` to `--panel /usr/lib/kimpanel-ibus-panel`. Kimpanel shows, but `ibus` still uses its own candidate window. So unable to reproduce. Could you share your `pgrep -a ibus` result, so I can start `ibus` the proper way? My `ibus` version: 1.5.29 Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.92.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.248.0 Qt Version: 6.6.1 Kernel Version: 6.7.0-arch3-1 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: offscreen Processors: 12 × AMD Ryzen 5 5600H with Radeon Graphics Memory: 13.5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon Graphics Kimpanel does not start automatically on environment now. So I tried: ibus-daemon --panel=/usr/libexec/kimpanel-ibus-panel QT_IM_MODULE=ibus kate By specifying QT_IM_MODULE, ibus does not talk with applications using Wayland's text-input protocol. So I think this is wrong way. |
