issue is solve under wine notepad, but still happened on LINE which is also running by wine.... which is does not make sense to me....

The issue is not in fcitx. I installed line and did some simple test. So here's the things happen: when you type over 20 char, chewing will commit the first char to the applications. In Line specifically, this commit will trigger line to send a Reset signal to input method, which will make input method to clear everything (Clear everything when receive reset signal is the right thing to do from input method point of view, but application shouldn't do that anyway.).

There is nothing I could do about that. Maybe you just live with it or use another implemenation of line (I saw they have chrome extension which should also works for linux).

I have some suggestion/idea maybe could make is happen less,

  1. add an option for commit all the word in buffer if word over 20
  2. add an option when user type symbol like ，/。 etc., than send all the word to application if there are other word other than symbol. what do you think ?

Due to the fact of how it is implemented, please submit such quest to libchewing.

I have found the API, seems call chewing_set_maxChiSymbolLen(), but the fact is chewing is only allow 39 byte, which is around 19 word, and buffer will overflow. I have manually increase to larger number, you may try to use that API to set an option. chewing has protection in chewing_set_maxChiSymbolLen() so it safe when it larger number
