Hello list, I am using Abiword, Inkscape and Gimp as GTK programs and I input Japanese and Chinese with scim. I switched the input module with GTK_IM_MODULE=scim to scim and this works fine, but the problem is the following: Because Japanese and Chinese need to modify the entered string, usually a pop up box appears where the user can choose the desired character. But in Inkscape and Abiword, and partly in GIMP, the problem is, that the entered character do not appear “on the spot”. I made a screenshot to illustrate the issue: http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/1135/scimgm1.jpg The correct behaviour should be that the “こんば” appears right after the |, just like any other Text you're typing and the drop box with the Kanji characters should appear below the text. It is odd that this works perfectly in Firefox. But it is almost unusable in Inkscape and Abiword, because you don't know where this box will appear and you can’t concentrate on typing. I already wrote to the Inkscape mailing list, but they don't know anything about it, and because it also appears in Abiword, I think this could be a GTK issue. In Inkscape, the same behaviour also appears on my Windows system. Does someone know how to solve this problem? I think these behaviours would make these programmes almost unsuable to people in China, Japan or Korea.
