Description
Gtk-based apps support overlapping Compose sequences, but it seems Qt-based do not, at least when using the IM backed by xkbcommon.
For instance, in the following Compose file only the sequence #3 is available:
<A> <B> <C> : "X" #1 <A> <B> : "Y" #2 <A> <B> <C> <D> : "Z" #3 <A> : "✨" #4
I am trying to add support for overlapping sequences in xkbcommon. I would appreciate if Qt developers could give an early feedback:
- Is this feature desirable? I would say yes, to bring feature parity with Gtk.
- Is this feature possible?
- Does the implementation in xkbcommon enable this feature in Qt?
