[Pkg-ime-devel] Bug#704847: fcitx-frontend-gtk3: problems with the candidate window

[Toni Mueller]

Package: fcitx-frontend-gtk3
Version: 1:4.2.4.1-7
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

it looks like I cannot control the placement of the candidate window.
Fcitx appears to insist to place it on its own. Moreover, the idea of
where to place it seems to change at times, so the window might jump
around ("1." in the attached image). Specifically, the window appears to
sometimes be stuck in the lower-left corner of the application's window,
and sometimes close to the place where I input text. If I move the
window to a different place, it starts hopping around to random
locations, one jump for each keypress.

I also have not found a way to increase the size of the font used in the
candidate window, and the candidate list is not scrollable ("2" in the
attached image - pressing the arrows has no effect whatsoever).


Kind regards,
--Toni++
