Title: One keypress, two characters (GTK2, Ubuntu 8.10 x86_64)
Post by: Kunstbanause on January 29, 2009, 11:22:18 pm
I changed my harddisk on my notebook. After I reinstalled Ubuntu 8.10 x86_64 I now have this weird problem.
When I try to enter text anywhere within the IDE (ObjectInspector, Options, ...) or within a compiled application the pressed key is displayed twice.

For example:
When I try to to enter "FreePascal" it ends up with "FFrreeeePPaassccaall".

Maybe I forgot to install a needed package or it's just any setting of Ubuntu itself, but I do not have any clue where to start to solve the problem and this problem only occurs within Lazarus and any application I compiled.

Greetings,
Marc

This is not a bug, it is new Lazarus feature  >:D

This same problem started for me as of yesterday.   Any fix available?

I tracked down the cause of this, SCIM (The Smart Common Input Method platform).  Once disabled, no more double-characters.

I met across this problem, too.
I do enabled scim.
Since you find what's wrong, can you fix this, please?

i've tried and found that the GTK2 programs lazarus compiled conflict with scim-bridge,a scim binding.GTK1 is ok,and GTK2 programs compiled with other compilers are ok too.

do following:

QT_IM_MODULE=xim <name of program with problem> #  KDE/QT-Anwendungen

or do this: (it worked by my computer)
GTK_IM_MODULE=gtk-im-context-xim <name of program with problem> #  Gnome/GTK-Anwendungen

in detail:
GTK_IM_MODULE=gtk-im-context-xim startlazarus

lubuntu 14.10
lazarus 1.2.4+dfsg-1
fpc 2.6.4
x86_64-linux-gtk 2

New install. Copied project files from Windows where I have a working exe file. Compiled after removing windows specific files. Everything worked. Ran the compiled file and entering data into an edit field got 2 characters for every one I entered.
Tried editing code and got double characters whenever I typed.
Compiled a test project with just a memo field and when I typed it doubled each letter.
Also ran a compiled file as an executable outside Lazarus and got the same result.
Considering the amount of time this bug has been around I would think there is someone who has a clear solution. Everything works beautifully but I can not type any code or enter data. >:D

Probably best to report it as a bug, which as much details (os, gtk version, windownamanger, ...) as possible.

Also best to indicate, if the issue only happens with IM or with/without. (and which keyboard layout is used, does an english layout fix it?)


IIRC some previous issues with key-presses existed only, when the installation was in a virtual machine, or some sort of remote access was used (VNC).

I am running lubuntu 14.10 exclusively on an Acer ASE360-UA381M desktop with the original Acer keyboard. I am using the default settings for the keyboard which is US English with no changes. I am just using the default driver. The problem only occurs with Lazarus. I have tried changing the keyboard repeat rate and delay to see if there is an effect and there was no change.

If it is input method problem, I solved it another way.
But it may not same as above problem.
it tested under UIM.

That involves synedit and also it seems to be run under Mint. This problem involves one letter input and two output.'The problem occurs when trying to code and when trying to enter data after compiling.

Readed almost 12.000 times  :o

I have this problem with Lazarus 1.2.6.

Anyone knows if fixed on SVN?

Edit: I'm using custom drawn target and works fine with edits that I put on my application. At least I can compile something.

Great =) I always thought CustomDrawn is useful.

I hope to return to CustomDrawn development when I'm done with Cocoa.

I got the same problem in Xubuntu 14.04 64 bit, even inside some Lazarus menus, e.g. the editboxes in the refactor menu (Right-click > Refactoring > Rename identifier) to name a concrete example, but it really happens more or less everywhere  :(

Tested both with the default that comes with xubuntu:
- Lazarus 1.0.10+dfsg-1
- FPC 2.6.2

... and:

- Lazarus 1.4.2 64bit (deb package)
- FPC 2.6.4 64bit (deb package)

(Xubuntu uses Xfce4, which AFAIK is using gtk2 widgets)

After I removed the scim package completely via synaptic package manager ("Mark for complete removal", then "Apply") and restarted Lazarus, everything works fine again!

Doesn't work in Lubuntu Software Center. Only things I can find using IBus search are unrelated to updates. I tried installing "IBus Input Pad Engine" but that had no effect. Can't find anything useful on keyboard input methods.

The command for installing this in the terminal is:

Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install ibus-gtk
... and for GTK3:

Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install ibus-gtk3
(Can be found like so:

Code: [Select]
[samuel ~]$ apt-cache search ibus gtk
ibus-gtk - Intelligent Input Bus - GTK+2 support
ibus-gtk3 - Intelligent Input Bus - GTK+3 support
im-config - Input method configuration framework
python-ibus - Intelligent Input Bus - Python support
spectools - Utilities for using the Wi-Spy USB spectrum analyzer hardware

For me though, I get rather inconsistent results. It worked first to completely remove scim, but then it works again even if I re-install scim. *Possibly* because I had installed and removed ibus-gtk there between, so it is not super-easy to pin down exactly the right combination that works, and the one that does not work.

Maybe I'll try and test a little in a virtual machine, to figure this out more exactly ...

I have the same problem with installing Lazarus 1.6 and svn version 1.7 Revision 53390 build on a 32 Bit system. I use Lubuntu 16.04.1 LTS.

Enter a caption for a widget, a name for a form or something else results in double chars. I tried to install ibus-gtk install and deinstall scim as described in this thread but nothing solves the problem.

Are there some news about this bug?

I also have the same problem.... it's unacceptable..... How do I fix this? I run the latest fpc and latest lazarus...

It is ok to run lazarus with
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]
  1. GTK_IM_MODULE=gtk-im-context-xim  lazarus
  2.  

But the problem is inherited by all compiled programs!!! And I use opengl, such that I cannot use qt.

Thank you, but it did not solve the problem.
ibus-gtk and ibus-gtk3 installed.
Input method >> none.
Doesn't work.
I can't believe that this bug is at least 10 years old and still exists.
It makes impossible to work with Lazarus.
Any other solution?

Have you try the solution in the link below?

It works for me on Ubuntu. Don't forget you need to reboot your computer to see the effect.

Yes, I did that and restart Linux, but nothing changed.

OK, problem solved.
I found JD's post here https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,39799.msg274142.html#msg274142 (https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,39799.msg274142.html#msg274142) and he wrote "Creating a file input_method.sh in my home directory". It was misleading, because the proper folder is the /etc/profile.d.
Thank you for the help
