Beat is open
This beat is now ready to have Fedora 25 content added by the beat writer

General Configuration

System locale and keyboard layout settings are configured using the localectl utility. Read man localectl for instructions on adjusting the system locale.

Input Methods

ibus
- ibus panel icon now shows the prefix of language names instead of layout names in non-GNOME desktop.
- Users' ibus input method engines always run when they log into GNOME desktop so that they switch the engines quickly without waiting for the engine launching time.
- ibus input method engines now are hidden on the lock screen in GNOME desktop.
- ibus implements a special panel icon for KDE5 since KDE5 no longer enable GtkStatusIcon by default.

ibus panel icon for KDE5
ibus checks XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP variable to show GtkStatusIcon or KDE5 icon so if you don't use login managers likes gdm but run startkde directly, you need to set XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP by manual.

Minglish, a new Marathi language m17n input method is added.

Fonts

New Fonts
- google-noto-sans-oriya-fonts, google-noto-sans-oriya-ui-fonts

Others

gnome-characters - Characters is a simple utility application to find and insert unusual characters.
New Locales
- bh_IN (Bhili language locale for India ), ce_RU (Chechen locale for RUSSIAN FEDERATION), raj_IN (Rajasthani locale for India) and tu_IN (Tulu locale for India)

-== On-screen input ==
+== General Configuration ==
-[http://code.google.com/p/input-pad Input-pad] is a tool to input symbols and other characters hard to type with a keyboard.
+System locale and keyboard layout settings are configured using the <code>localectl</code> utility. Read <code>man localectl</code> for instructions on adjusting the system locale.
-[http://ueno.github.com/eekboard eekboard] is new virtual keyboard, which supports X keyboard layout switching.

-The new [http://code.google.com/p/ibus-handwrite ibus-handwrite] package supports on-screen input of Chinese hanzi and Japanese kanji characters.
+* Minglish, a new Marathi language m17n input method is added.
-== Input methods ==
-Users of input-methods upgrading from earlier versions of Fedora may need to install GTK3 versions of their GTK immodules, like ibus-gtk3, in order for input-methods to continue working normally on their desktop.
-im-chooser (via imsettings) now allows to fully disable input-methods for users that do not need XIM for X locale compose support: so Unicode input with Control+Shift+u works again in GTK applications by default when not using input-methods like ibus.
 == Fonts ==
-=== Chinese ===
+* New Fonts
-For Simplified Chinese, the default desktop font is WenQuanYi ZenHei; for Traditional Chinese, the default desktop font is UMing.
+** google-noto-sans-oriya-fonts, google-noto-sans-oriya-ui-fonts
-For WenQuanYi ZenHei, a simple tool zenheiset has been introduced, which allows changing its rendering between the default anti-aliased outline and bitmap rendering.
+== Others ==
+* gnome-characters -  Characters is a simple utility application to find and insert unusual characters.
+* New Locales
+** bh_IN (Bhili language locale for India ), ce_RU (Chechen locale for RUSSIAN FEDERATION), raj_IN (Rajasthani locale for India) and tu_IN (Tulu locale for India)
