3. select RAWCODE (if know the scim-sinhala key sequence for same combinations, 
   one can try with selecting sinhala layout in scim - result will be the same)

Comment 1 Rahul Bhalerao 2006-09-26 23:05:17 UTC

Satya,
What is the meaning of '1st modifier' and '2nd modifier'? I never used or
encountered these terms for any other Indic fonts/scripts. Could you please
provide the list of combinations as soon as possible.
Thanks.

Hi Rahul,

I'm not very much into the fonts stuff or language internals, but according to
what I discussed with Tyronne yesterday...

1st modifiers...
type "ii" or "uu" or "oo" or "dH" with scim-sinhala

2nd modifiers
type "kRoo" with scim-sinhala

Hoping this helps...
:)
Mayank

Comment 3 Rahul Bhalerao 2006-09-27 15:29:39 UTC

All of the 1st modifier and 2nd modifier issues are related to scim-sinhala.
Font renders correctly with pango and rawcode. Scim-sinhala maps combination of
two different keys to one unicode characters. This function is not working on gnome.
It can be related to scim-bridge or any other mechanism within input method, but
not to the font or Pango.

This also sounds similar to bug 206261.
