With pinyin from windows I can't type Chinese characters. The pinyin just 
remain disable.

As a workaround you should be able to write the Chinese characters in any other 
editor, then copy-and-paste them into the text field.  See related post

I was trying this: https://www.wiziq.com/Virtual_Classroom.aspx demo version. 
In there I was experiencing same problem too. Hope you will get more idea about 
that issue.

We don't have any interaction with WizIQ as they are not open source.  
Hopefully, if we fix the issue on our end they can benefit from our work and 
improve their product too.

No update.  For now, the work-around is to cut-and-paste the text from another 
editor.

This is currently not slated for development in this release cycle (which we're 
trying to finish up asap).  To understand how we prioritize for each release,
