Description Kyrylo Bohdanenko 2021-05-13 12:47:39 UTC

SUMMARY
When using Cyrillic keyboard layout (e.g. Ukrainian) the hotkey Meta+. does not open the emoji selector

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add Cyrillic keyboard layout in systemsettings (e.g. Ukrainian, Bulgarian, (North) Macedonian, Belarusian)
2. Switch to the layout
3. Press Meta+.

OBSERVED RESULT
The letter assigned to the "." key is printed. In case of Ukrainian layout it is the letter "ю".

EXPECTED RESULT
Emoji selector window should be shown

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS 
Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 20.10, Wayland session
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: Plasma 5.21.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.81.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This might be Wayland-related. Since I have a HiDPI screen and X11 is really bad with fractional scaling, I do not use X11 and have not checked if the bug is reproducible there.

I can also say, that this bug is probably reproducible with any non-latin keyboard layout. Because for example, emoji selector works just fine with Polish keyboard layout.
