Input Methods

  • $HOME/.xinputrc has been moved to $HOME/.config/imsettings/xinputrc.
  • $HOME/.imsettings.log has been moved to $HOME/.cache/imsettings/log.
  • The default engine for Simplified Chinese has been changed to ibus-libpinyin (see Features/ibus-libpinyin for more details).
  • In GNOME 3.6 since ibus is now supported as the default input method system, users should now use gnome-control-center to setup their input methods:
    1. click on the name at the upper right corner of the panel.
    2. select System Settings from the menu
    3. click on the Region & Language icon
    4. open Input Sources tab
    5. click on + icon to add any input sources
    6. choose an input source you want to add
  • In GNOME im-chooser is now deprecated, except in Fallback mode.
  • If there are no input sources in the list which you want to use, try the following command on the terminal and restart the desktop:

  • There may be no shortcut key to turn on/off the input method by default. you can enable it as the following steps:
    1. click the shortcut settings link in the Input Sources tab on System Settings or click the Keyboard icon at the top and the Shortcuts tab, the Typing section at the left pane.
    2. click on the Switch to next source, press [Control] + [space].
  • There may be no input source to input a native language through ibus by default. you can add it with the above steps as a workaround. this is the input sources table corresponding to the input method engines:

Chinese (Intelligent Bopomofo) ibus-libpinyin
Chinese (Intelligent Pinyin) ibus-libpinyin
Japanese (Anthy) ibus-anthy

  • ibus-typing-booster is a predictive input method for the ibus platform. It predicts complete words based on partial input.
