Description Jens Petersen 2023-05-18 03:01:13 UTC
Maybe this is already known upstream?
But it doesn't seem possible for me to
input emoji using ibus' emoji chooser.

I tested with ibus-1.5.28-4.fc38 and earlier

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Super+Period Space > Activities
2. Select emoji with keys or mouse

Actual Results:  
Dialog closes, no emoji is committed

Expected Results:  
Selected emoji to appear in the application
or at least to be copied to the clipboard.

I see similar behavior in F37.

Thank you for the report.
As I noted in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2178178#c5, there is still a problem and it's good to file the issue.

The current workaround is to use Ctrl-Shift-c to copy the selected Emoji on the Emojier GUI. RF. ibus-emoji(5).

I confirmed the upstream fix is integrated in Fedora 39.
