Hi, dear Lyx developers,

I use Linux and have some trouble with typing Chinese in Lyx: the candidate
box can't follow the cursor when editing with *Ibus* or *fcitx*.

I noticed that Lyx was written in Qt5 which fully supports the two input
framework, in fact, they work well in other Qt5-based software like *Texstudio.
*So I think this may be a bug of Lyx
*.*

You can reproduce it on  Linux system, here are some info about my
environment:

OS: Manjaro 18.1.1 Juhraya
Kernel: x86_64 Linux 4.19
DE: GNOME 3.34.1
WM: Mutter
IM: ibus, ibus-libpinyin

Anyway thanks for your works. It'd be better if you can do something with
it.
