However, when I typed equivalent Korean characters then it was shown in wrong order - 'cba'. The caret seemed not to move forward while I was typing. And the new character pushed existing characters to the right. So, it was progressing like below. a ba cba Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-1.5.9.2-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Activate iiimf-le-hangul 2. Open new mail window 3. Change into Korean input mode (ctrl-space) 4. Type couple of Korean alpabets 5. Check the order of characters Additional info: iiimf-le-hangul-11.4-64.svn1772 was used to input Korean character and the ime works fine in another apps such as Mozilla and OpenOffice.
This problem may be hangul input method(iiimf-le-hangul)'s bug. The Same problem happens in imhangul 0.9.9. But this problem is fixed in imhangul 0.9.10. "iiimf-le-hangul" and "imhangul" are gtk-im-module. http://kldp.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=300276&group_id=28&atid=100028 http://kldp.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=1705
Hi sangu, Thanks for the useful information. From the answer of my query in the project page, I got better understanding of the problem. The developer, Choe Hwanjin, who semms to lead both projects mentioned that iiimf-le-hangul was initially designed to avoid the problem, but it might be caused by how gtkhtml-3.1 handles im context. It thus appears to me that this is not a bug of evolution. However, I could not find iiimf-le-hangul component for FC. Would it be better to close this bug here? What do you think Dave?
I'm sorry that this bug has gone for a while without activity. Both gtkhtml3 and the iiimf code have gone through a number of versions since this bug was filed, so it would be useful if you try grabbing the latest Rawhide versions and seeing how well Korean input is working (both within Evolution, and in general)
Hi Dave, This issues seems fixed in the latest Rawhide version. Korean input is working well with Evelution and also in general.
