Dead keys don't work in the location bar
Last modified: 2006-11-30 22:00:33 UTC
Please describe the problem: Or, more precisely: Dead keys don't work in the location bar, or the "topics" text field of the "Add Bookmark" dialog, when the pop-up menu is shown. Steps to reproduce: 1. Focus the location bar and start typing. 2. Until the Smart Bookmarks and the History are shown, you can type things like `+a=à 3. When the pop-up menu with smart bookmarks and the history shows up, dead keys like ` take no effect. Actual results: I can't search for "patagônia", just for "patagonia", in exemple. Expected results: Does this happen every time? Since GTK 2.10.x / Epiphany 2.16.0 I'm sorry it take me so long to report this. I'm using GTK+ 2.10.6 and Epiphany 2.16.2 and the issue is still present. Other information: My locale is pt_BR.UTF-8. Compiled with 02, ggdb, pipe and march=athlon-xp.
Have you tried doing right click > Input Methods > X Input Method ?
