Compose key does not work on tchap-web #162

Open breard-r opened 2 years ago

breard-r commented 2 years ago

Description

I use a QWERTY-US keyboard and therefore have configured a compose key in order to type characters who does not have a physical key. It works fine in every application, including web browsers, excepted on the tchap web application.

The console does not display any error or warning.

Steps to reproduce

  1. define a compose key using setxkbmap -option "compose:$COMPOSE_KEY" (replace $COMPOSE_KEY by rwin, menu or any other key)
  2. open https://www.tchap.gouv.fr/
  3. use the compose key when writing a message: compose + ' + e displays 'e instead of é
  4. try it on any other web page: it works just fine

Might be related to vector-im/element-web#7665, please backport the fix if applicable. Similar lecture includes vector-im/element-web#7441 and vector-im/element-web#7440

@breard-r Backport will be complicated (they is huge amount of difference). A new version will be made with the last version element. Do you test the bug on the last version of element ?

As a workaround, it works for me most of the time if I press the compose key + first char at the same time, then the letter.

Hey @jdauphant is there any progress on this? I'm still suffering from this on Tchap web.

I use www.tchap.gouv.fr, no fancy nor custom builds.

Thanx. It works for some characters, however I still find it to be impractical. I usually prefer to type in a text editor and then paste the message.

Same here :sob:

Hello, there is no plan to backport. A new version is developed https://github.com/tchapgouv/tchap-web-v4 with the last version of Element. A Beta should be available in september.

Thanks. Do we need to do something specific to participate in the beta?
