Michael, as you can see from the comment below that I've just posted to another thread, this problem also occurs in Gutsy - it seems to be connected to the SCIM update from version 1.4.4 to version 1.4.7. I very much hope that the developers will be able to provide us with a way to enter Unicode glyphs that doesn't conflict with the present version - or later versions - of SCIM....
Henri I have previously (up to and including Ubuntu 7.04) been able to use «Ctrl+Shift+u, hex code, space» to enter Unicode glyphs, e g, «Ctrl+Shift+u,5000, space» resulted in the Chinese glyph «倀». After the SCIM update to version 1.4.7, however, this is no longer possible ; when attempting to enter the glyph, I get «5000 » instead. This is the case both on Ubuntu 7.10 and the alpha 6 version of 8.04. SCIM is a wonderful feature and required for the type of work I do, but I should also like to have the opportunity to enter Unicode glyphs ad libitum. Can this interference - as I presume it is - be resolved, or another key pattern assigned to Unicode glyphs ?... -- [Hardy] Unicode Code Point entry (C-S-u <code-point>) is broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/199590 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
