GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 67073
Multibyte input into cell through XIM
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
XIM Over-the-spot style input needs to update XIM preedit area position to the cursor blinking position. (patch is available.) But I want to update when just focused cell is changed with a mouse click. It just needs to tell cell's upper left corner x, y to item_edit_update_im_position() function but I have no idea about this.
Created attachment 6235 [details] [review] includes cursor position fix too
I am not comfortable with this patch right now. I'll revisit it for 1.0.1
I did not forget this. I'll commit after 1.0.2 so it can get some testing. However, we will need to rework it completely for gnome2. All input method support there is disabled.

Now that the internals of gnumeric are generally utf8 clean and IM support has been basicly re-enabled we can revisit support this form of IM. I can't say I love the notion of this being in redhat's pacakges of 1.0.x, the patch needed some work. Hopefully in the context of 1.1.x this will be alot cleaner. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 84062 ***
