You have been subscribed to a public bug:
Some programs (not only Gnome Text Editor... I had to choose at least one
package to report the bug) don't recognize Italian accented capital letters.
When "Caps Lock" is on àèìòù should be written as ÀÈÌÒÙ... but for some reasons
they are not capitalized.
This problem shows up with:
- Gnome Text Editor (deb)
- Libre Office (snap and deb)
- Firefox (snap)
- Sublime Text (snap)
- Gedit (snap)
- Gnome Terminal (deb)
No problems with the following software (all snap):
- Thunderbird
- MarkText
- Telegram
===========================
WORKAROUND:
In "Settings -> Keyboard" it's possible to set a "compose key".
For example I've selected the [Super left] key. If I want to compose È I press
and immediately release each key:
[Super left] + [E] + [Alt Gr] + [']
If I want É:
[Super left] + [E] + [']
Do the same for the other vowels.
