<div dir="ltr">Hallo<br> I have one PC with english keyboard (US international with
dead keys) and another one with spanish keyboard (Castilian Spanish with
dead keys) both with fedora 32 (since a couple of days) and lyx
2.3.5.2. In both PC have the same problem: the accents work perfectly
(e.g. á is " 'a ") when in a terminal, opening nedit, ooffice, etc. but
in lyx not only it doesn't work, the dead key is really dead: if I type '
in lyx it doesn't type anything but, there is at least one exception,
when saving a file, I can type a name with accents (?) <br> <br> A
couple of days ago, I updated the PCs which both were with fedora 29 and
lyx 2.3.3 and worked correctly. I tried downgrading lyx to 2.3.4 to no
avail. I wanted to install the lyx 2.3.3 of fedora 29 but couldn't. I
tried, according to the customization manual, to add the following line
to the file .lyx/lyxrc.default<br> accent-circumflex "S-^"<br> to no
avail. I created the file .lyx/lyxrc with the same line and with the
same result. I looked at some .kmap files in /usr/share/lyx/kbd,
specifically at the francais.kmap, espanol.kmap and the european.kmap
and all of them have the acents defined. Then I went to Tools ->
Editing -> Keyboard/Mouse and included them in turn with no change at
all. I looked at /usr/share/lyx/bind and was completely lost; I didn't
understand a thing. Searching with google I found some references but
also didn't understand them. In the mailing list it is mentioned (in
2019) that there is a workaround related with Qt: to include in
.xsessionrc the line<br> export QT_IM_MODULE=xim<br> I created the file with that line but didn't work<br> <br> As now I'm writing in french, which needs all the dead keys combinations, I exclude the use of latex writing style.<br> <br>
As conclusion: am I doing anything wrong? The other possibilities I see
are: either I'm a lucky guy and I found a bug in lyx or the fedora 32
implementation went askew. Any suggestions?<font color="#888888"><br> <br> Jorge Hernando</font></div>
