layout for Czech keyboard (84.38 KB, image/jpeg)

Description Zdenek Chmelar 2016-10-29 17:28:01 UTC
Description of problem:

Czech language has special characters like "ě", "č", "ž" etc. These characters are located on the keys with numbers (I mean laptop keyboard with number keys in the top row). So if I activate EN keyboard, I type numbers. If I use CS, I type those special czech characters (numbers can be still inserted with Shift).

Using cs-CZ (Typing Booster) keyboard does not allow to use those spec. Czech characters anymore because numbers are still active. So I cannot type those letters anymore.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ibus-typing-booster-1.5.8-1.fc25
and all versions before

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add additional input sources "Czech (qwerty)" & "Czech (Czech - CZ (typing booster))"
2. Activate EN keyboard - pressing number keys makes numbers
3. Activate "Czech (qwerty)" - pressing number keys produces spec. characters like "ě", "č", "ž" etc. Press shift and number key to get numbers
4. Activate "Czech - CZ (typing booster)" - pressing number keys produces numbers only


Actual results:
Can't insert Czech spec. character located on number key

Expected results:
Typing numbers under CZ typing booster inserts those CZ characters like when using CZ keyboard.

Just to avoid confusion, I attached Czech keyboard layout.
I highlighted the keys with special characters. I can get those characters with alternative way using Shift key and "ˇ" or "´" and then normal letter to get the special character but that does not work either.

If you say "cannot reproduce", does it mean it works for you?

It is clarified now. Thanks a lot Mike for your explanation
