Description Danishka Navin 2013-12-14 07:55:21 UTC
Description of problem:

01: When you type Sinhala using iBus I can see an underline mark for each character (while it typing) but there is no such behaviour for English. There is no such thing with scim we have before.

02: I use LibreOffice Writer Version 3.6.7.2 (Build ID: 3.6.7.2-4.fc18)

When I press CTRL+Space ibus switch to Sinhala input method but default font is still appearing as Liberatio Serif but earlier it switch to LKLUG.

Without selecting LKLUG font the text appears horrible.

Which engine do you use?
After you install ibus-m17n, Sinhala -> wijesekera is available on ibus-setup for example.

You can run 'ibus engine' to show the current engine.
I don't think your problem is an ibus framework issue but an ibus engine issue.

ibus uses the desktop font.
If you use GNOME, probably you can change the font with 'fonts-tweak-tool' command.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2013-12-21 14:49:14 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '18'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be 
able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.
