Idea doesn't support ibus in xubuntu-desktop

Answered

OS: xubuntu16.04

IM:ibus1.5.11

Logging to this xubuntu using xrdp(mstsc in windows 7)

ADDED exports in the front of the idea.sh.

export XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus
export GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus
export QT_IM_MODULE=ibus

 

I've tried both ultra & community edition(2018.1.6) of idea, none of them support inputs of chinese charactors -- I can't activate the chinese input method, I can just type english letters or charactors.

And I have googled for solutions, such as, Switch Boot Jdk, or replace the jre directory in the idea directory with a jre from a jdk8u151 installation

What exactly happens? Have you checked the https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-78860 for the workaround to disable iBus for IDE only. Have you tried it, does it help?

hi @Andrey Dernov, thanks for your reply, my issue here is: I can't activate the chinese input method, I can just type english letters or charactors -- not the issue your mentioned in your comment.

Please file an issue at https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues/IDEA with idea.log attached after IDE restart. Please also specify what Chinese input method is configured for iBus.
