Based on my reading of: http://www.suse.de/~mfabian/suse-cjk/kde-input-style.html
In the SCIM style of input for various far-eastern Asian languages, the result (completition) is built up as more keys are typed. The problem seems to come down to whether possibily completions are displayed *in* the widget (such as a spinbox), or *over* the widget. Over the Widget means that the completion is not pasted back to the widget until the completion is finalised. A spin-box having a constraint (eg. "great that zero") may complain at a half-completed result and instead set the spinbox value to zero. Suse suggest "Over the widget" where completions are displayed in a separate window until finalised. -- Cannot enter anything into real number fields https://launchpad.net/bugs/37711 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
