Did you enable fcitx as a virtual keyboard in KDE settings? (this aspect of KDE is not very natural...)
Hello, Jens Petersen . Thanks for the information. I could input with setting fcitx5 as a virtual keyboard in KDE. For anyone who may interested , https://fcitx-im.org/wiki/Using_Fcitx_5_on_Wayland#KDE_Plasma However there's still a problem. If i both set input method to fcitx in virtual keyboard and "Input Method Selecor" , after rebooting , fcitx will crash . I found the fcitx's popup message: #: src/modules/wayland/waylandmodule.cpp:464 msgid "" "Fcitx should be launched by KWin under KDE Wayland in order to use Wayland " "input method frontend. This can improve the experience when using Fcitx on " "Wayland. To configure this, you need to go to \"System Settings\" -> " "\"Virtual keyboard\" and select \"Fcitx 5\" from it. You may also need to " "disable tools that launches input method, such as imsettings on Fedora, or " "im-config on Debian/Ubuntu. For more details see https://fcitx-im.org/wiki/" "Using_Fcitx_5_on_Wayland#KDE_Plasma" msgstr "" ------------------ So could imsettings automatically set to none when detecting that virtual keyboard is set ?
imsettings doesn't support desktops on wayland session. This isn't a bug. For a crash, We need to add a line of: IMSETTINGS_IGNORE_SESSION=*-wayland in /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/fcitx5.conf; the wildcard will works after imsettings 1.8.8. Reassigning to fcitx5.
