Description HaiShan Chen 2012-06-17 07:09:44 UTC 
Hi, I use Dia upon Ubuntu 12.04 with Unity interface. I found that I can't input Chinese characters in Dia, which was no problem under 0.97.1. I normally used HIME/gcin IMs and I doubted they caused this problem. So I changed to ibus which is Ubuntu's default multi-launguage IM, but it still didn't work.

Some users report that's because Dia use GTK-2, but mainstream IMs have used GTK-3, so they change IMs to older versions to solve this problem. I didn't try it so I don't know if it actually work.

Sorry, I forgot to report my Dia version, which is 0.97.2.
Comment 2 HaiShan Chen 2012-06-17 09:29:19 UTC 
Hi, someone told me change /usr/bin/dia to cancel integrated UI, and it solve the problem.

from: 
dia-gnome --integrated "$@"

to:
dia-gnome "$@"

Still hope you guys can find out what's going wrong. I like integrated UI more than tool bar separated.
