I'm running stock SL-10.1 patched with all relevant security and recommended patches. The default locale is en_US.UTF-8.
I started a konsole in the zh_TW.UTF-8 locale so I could input some Chinese characters.
You don't need to use zh_TW.UTF-8 locale to enable input of Chinese, scim works in en_US.UTF-8 as well.
When I attempted to use the "Handwriting recognition" feature of scim (scim-tomoe) to input a charater for which I did not know the reading, I was not able to get the character from the Handwriting pad into the target application (KDE konsole). Clicking on the character did nothing, nor was there anything else I could find to input the character (i.e., there was no right-click menu, it was not copied into the clipboard, etc).
Below the area where you draw the character, there is a line which
shows the matched characters. Click on one of these characters with
the left mouse button and it will be inserted into the application.
