Description of problem:
The input region of the ibus-handwrite (for Japanese and Chinese characters) appears cropped in the down side of the screen, especially on 16:9 netbook screens with 600 pixels of horizontal resolution (see attchmnt) which makes input difficult and choosing the proposed characters impossible. There should be a way to move the input window.

Actually you can move it by holding the right mouse key.

Comment 2 DemetrisK 2010-11-23 05:21:43 UTC
Oh, mea culpa then.
I can't check it right now, but even so, it's not intuitive. Since alt+drag can't be used, a small addition of a tooltip or a line of text in the About screen could be helpful. Except if I am missing something.

Comment 3 Peng Wu 2010-11-26 02:20:57 UTC
I will add a tooltip to ibus-handwrite, like:
"<b>Hint:</b>\n"
"Left mouse key to draw strokes.\n"
"Holding right mouse key to move the widget.\n"

Is this OK?

Comment 4 DemetrisK 2010-11-26 06:13:17 UTC
It seems reasonable enough for me. 
Thanks for taking care of the improvement request.
