Created attachment 1834251 [details] Video showing the problem [mfabian@fedora ~]$ cat /etc/fedora-release Fedora release 35 (Thirty Five) [mfabian@fedora ~]$ rpm -q ibus ibus-1.5.25-4.fc35.x86_64 [mfabian@fedora ~]$ rpm -q gnome-shell gnome-shell-41.0-4.fc35.x86_64 [mfabian@fedora ~]$ Running in qemu-kvm with all current updates. Gnome Xorg session. Input methods sometimes show candidate lists and sometimes hide or close them again. For example, when a candidate is committed the candidate list usually disappears. The candidate list shown on top of the gnome on-screen keyboard should behave the same way. Always when the “normal” candidate list would disappear, the candidate list on top of the Gnome on-screen keyboard should disappear as well. But this is not the case. See the attached video. The video shows using these input methods: - ibus-libpinyin (Chinese (Intelligent Pinyin)) - ibus-kkc (Japanese (Kana Kanji)) - ibus-typing-booster (Other (Typing Booster)) - ibus-anthy (Japanese (Anthy)) *Only* if ibus-anthy is used, the candidate list disappears reliably when the candidate currently shown in the preedit is commit by clicking on the "Return" key on the on-screen keyboard. When using ibus-kkc, the candidate list on top of the on-screen keyboard does *not* disappear when committing the candidate currently shown in the preedit by clicking on the Return key. Same with ibus-libpinyin, when committing the candidate currently shown in the preedit by clicking on the space bar on the on-screen keyboard, the candidate list does *not* disappear. Also the same with ibus-typing-booster, when committing the candidate currently shown in the preedit by clicking either on the space bar or the return key on hte on-screen keyboard, the candidate list does *not* disappear.
I did choose component “ibus” but I am not sure whether this is a problem of ibus or gnome-shell.

I don't think the preedit behaviors should be the same way betweenn ibus-kkc and ibus-anthy. I'm thinking if the preedit behaviors between languages should be the same way in OSK. I confirmed MS-Windows 10 does not support IME in OSK yet and ibus-anthy follows the preedit behavior. Probably I will upgrade my Window 10 to 11 later. Probably I think ibus core or engines can handle the behavior after I modify gnome-shell with a new API ibus_input_context_set_client_name() to switch the OSK and physical keyboards.

Now IBUS_CAP_OSK is implemented in gnome-shell and the mode is available when GNOME OSK is enabled. It still has a problem not to distinguish physical typing and OSK typing while OSK is launched and it's currently hard to be fixed. Now ibus-anthy should implement IBUS_CAP_OSK.
ibus-anthy has several condition to disable candidate list but GNOME OSK shows it forcibly. And I think committing the selected candidate of all conditions would be a risk to cause other regressions. I fix this major issues at the moment and will consider left issues when another cases are reported.
