autokey - issue #202

Using Ubuntu Server with LXDE I see no umlauts "äöüßÖÄÜ"


Posted on May 23, 2012 by Massive Camel

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Start XServer LXDE (I use Ubuntu 11.10 Server Edition) 2. Start autoKey 3. Add a new Shortcut which should produce "Mit freundlichen Grüßen" 4. execute the shortcut in any editor

I expect to see "Mit freundlichen Grüßen", but I see only "Mit freundlichen Gren"

I Use Autokey 0.71.2

It does not make any difference, if I use "autokey QT" or "autokey GTK".

Hi, a workaround may be selecting in the combobox:

Paste using: Clipboard (Ctrl+V)

But this shouldn't be normal behaviour. I would like this to be fixed as well.

Workaround works fine for me. Many thanks.

This appears to be AutoKey's problems with Unicode - currently being worked on and can be merged with that bug.

This seems to be not fixed yet. AutoKey doesn't work with Russian (all non-Latin probably) at all. If I select "Paste using: Clipboard (Ctrl+V)" it pastes whatever is in the clipboard at this time - not the phrase I want.
