[opensuse-factory] Compose key not working in Qt/KDE apps

Seems like I'm the only one needing the compose key in these apps, otherwise I would have seen other bug reports. After my last update of TW I discovered that the compose key didn't work in Qt/KDE apps. Seems the bug for which patches ar evaluated upstream for Qt 5.10 is also present in Qt 5.9.2 used in TW. I've filed https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1069664 , let's see if anything happens.

I use the ċømpose key all the time to write accented characters. Works fine here in kmail and other Qt / KDE apps.
In TumbleWeed? Then I must check the repos I was using. Philipp -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

In my non-working TW setup compose worked in anything *not* based on Qt too it was only the Qt based apps where the compose key didn't work. Philipp -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Yes, in Tumblewœēd. KDE_Extra repo is active for a couple of programs, rest is stock TW.
Strange. Well. I can't check anymore as I've switched to Leap 42.3 now to have a stable machine at work and thus don't have the old repo description to check where I got the buggy version from.

Not sure if that's the problem here, but Shift+RCTRL as default compose key has been disabled recently because of a bug report: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/532997 Although, that was a month ago already...

Different problem. I had put compose key on left windows key and also checked with xev that whatever key or key combo I set correctly produced the event code Multi_key.

many of the offered key-combos in systemsettings5 will not work for me, especially third level. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
