Keyboard layout switch not working for many applications
I've configured Gnome such that keyboard layout is switched from US to German while AltGr is being pressed. Under X11, this works for all applications but under Wayland it works for some but not others.
Here are some applications in I tried where keyboard layout swiching worked (✓) and where it doesn't work (✕). Maybe someone can see a system in this list.
- Blender ✕
- Emacs-gtk ✕
- Firefox
- Gimp ✓
- Gnome-terminal ✓
- Google-Chrome ✕
- Google-Earth ✕
- Inkscape ✕
- LaTeXila ✓
- LibreOffice ✓
- Mathematica ✕
- Nautilus ✓
- Minecraft ✕
- Opera ✕
- Rhythmbox ✓
- Shotwell ✓
- Skype ✕
- Telegram ✕
- Thunderbird ✕
- Vivalid ✕
- XTerm ✕
This is a common problem seen on many distros and reported before [e.g. Ubuntu, Fedora]. I'm reporting this here because it apparently never got traction elsewhere.
