Summary: Unable to type french accented characters Product: Wine Version: 1.3.24 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: lukaschmela@gmail.com
French is not my locale in Ubuntu, however, I need it in wine applications as well as in Ubuntu native applications. Using the keyboard shortcut (Shift+CapsLock), I can change the keyboard layout in Ubuntu to french azerty and that is also well recognized in wine.
The problem is, that when I try to type a french accented letter (e.g. è,à,ê), it only types the unaccented equivalent (e,a,e). This happens in Wine's Notepad as well as in other applications.

--- Comment #2 from Lukáš Chmela lukaschmela@gmail.com 2011-08-02 09:52:25 CDT --- Sorry, you meant changing it system-wide? Or is there another solution to this to make at least my dictionary use the accented characters the right way? Also, this is a big usability issue for me, will I be able then to write accented characters from my system's locale (if it could be done for the dictionary specifically) - Czech - in the dictionary as well? As it is often needed to switch between keyboard layouts during a program run, why wasn't this implemented yet and is it planned to be done anytime in the future?
Sorry for so many questions and thank you for your reply.

--- Comment #4 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com 2013-11-13 16:50:21 CST --- This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for 2 years. Is this still an issue in current (1.7.6 or newer) wine? If so, please attach the terminal output in 1.7.6 (see http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log).
