Description Jens Petersen 2022-04-12 05:21:21 UTC
Description of problem:
With Gnome on Xorg using gtk4 apps, the candidate is often placed
partially or completely off-screen, which is not useful of course.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ibus-1.5.26-3.fc36.x86_64
gtk4-4.6.2-2.fc36.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start GNOME on Xorg
2. Open gnome-text-editor or gtk4-demo-application
3. Try to input Japanese or Chinese

Actual results:
Candidate window is place off-window or off-screen

Expected results:
Candidate window to be visible like with gtk3 apps

Additional info:
Is there some way to enforce that candidate windows should always appear on-screen?

Comment 1 Jens Petersen 2022-04-12 05:22:14 UTC

This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 36 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 36 on 2023-05-16.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained.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 EOL if it remains open with a
'version' of '36'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora Linux version. Note that the version field may be hidden.
Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see it.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora Linux 36 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 Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version
prior to this bug being closed.

This component is maintained by the GNOME project. Issues with it should be reported directly to GNOME at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/.

This issue should only be kept open if it:

1. Relates to Fedora packaging or integration with other Fedora components
2. Is required for Fedora release processes, such as blocker bugs and freeze exceptions

If this issue isn't needed for either of these two reasons, please:

 * create an issue with GNOME
 * add a link to the GNOME issue here
 * close this issue as CLOSED/UPSTREAM

Thank you!
