Description of problem: When in any candidate selection menu, ESC should escape and cancel that menu and/or character conversion.
it highly depends on the implementation of LEs. since all of key events is processed on each LEs and to sync the state after escaping.
As taogh-san said. Which specific LE are you experiencing this on? Need to change it to specific componment if available.
This wouldn't be a good idea for all LE's? This should really be done for all LE's, and also that pop-up menu that is similar to a candidate selection in navigation, except it makes you choose an LE. That is not specific to any LE, so cannot be assigned to a specific LE.
If you test iiimf-xcin, you can use 'escape' to close the candidate section. It is the one of the must function for closing candidate window, but it has to be handled (or more make sense) because: 1. LE is handling lookup candidates data 2. LE has to pass iml_make_lookup_done_inst() to finish the candidate window 3. LE has to handle to clear any preedit buffer they have in their data structure So it is implemented within LE. However from comment #3, look like you are talking about the LE switching feature menu (i.e. ctrl-shift-space), but not candidate window. Then yes, it is within im-sdk lib.
Steps to reproduce: 1. LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 GTK_IM_MODULE=iiim gedit 2. press ctrl-shift-space 3. press escape Actual results: cannot quit the selection window Expected results: escape out from selection window
as the summary has been changed, I reassign this to Canna. Canna has a way to escape from something. and Escape key hasn't been assigned such behavior right now.
This has been checked in and built for RHEL4, and we should probably also issue a FC2 & FC3 update soon. I need to discuss this with the eng-i18n team. Hopefully other improvements to the Canna package can be made too to make it a more worthwhile upgrade.
Tagoh, At the moment, the ESC only quit the canna LE candidate window in i386 machine. But on x86_64 machine, it does not. One more thing, is it possible to implement the ESC key to the Canna configuration aux? The menu that pops up when the Home key is press?
After an upgrade of Canna server to Canna-3.7p3-7 everything is working pefectly now. Just need to know if it is possible to implement the ESC key to the Canna configuration aux? The menu that pops up when the Home key is press? Or should I file another bug for the aux?
After a quick discussion with tagoh, to escape from aux, the ESC key should be processed by the IIIMF server. Will create a new bug for this issue. Thanks.
