[SOLVED] gtk-query-immodules not detecting fcitx

My fcitx installation isn't working (nothing happens when I try to trigger the input methods. My fcitx-diagnose output is as follows:

3.  `~/.config/fcitx/log/crash.log`:

    `~/.config/fcitx/log/crash.log` not found.

Observations:

  1. Config GUI for GTK2 is not found but that's OK. I configure fcitx through GTK3. Same for KDE.

  2. LC_CTYPE is not set to a UTF-8 locale, but this should only be applicable to XIM. Which I am *not* using.

  3. I'm not sure if "Cannot find fcitx input method module for Qt4." is an issue.

  4. To try to solve "Failed to find fcitx in the output of `/usr/bin/gtk-query-immodules-*`" and "Failed to find fcitx in immodule cache at `/usr/lib32/gtk-*/*/immodules.cache" I attempted to run "gtk-query-immodules-* --update-cache" but that didn't change anything.

  5. I *am* able to use the input method *if* I make it the first input method in fcitx-config-gtk3. This leads me to believe that the input methods themselves are fine, but for some reason I cannot get toggle the active state. I *have* tried setting different keyboard combinations for triggering the input method (thinking it may be shortcut collision), but this didn't help.

I've set up fcitx on multiple Arch installations but have never had issues until this time and don't know why sad

Thanks in advance for your help!

Re: [SOLVED] gtk-query-immodules not detecting fcitx

I found the "issue". (Which I can't quite explain.) 2 observations:

  1. I was doing all my testing in Chromium, and it turns out I needed to restart Chromium for the fcitx input method trigger to take effect. (All the other fcitx configurations I were testing all took effect immediately.) Once I restarted Chromium most of the keyboard combinations started to work. (See next point.)

  2. I did noticed that regardless of restarts, ctrl+shift+backspace is *not* a keyboard combination that works. (Even though it's recognized in fcitx-config-gtk3.) I'm pretty sure this combination is not being used anywhere else, but was still not able to get it to use it as active/inactive trigger.

Going to mark this as closed!
