[Solved] Input methods don't function in wine programs

I have tried input methods like ibus, fcitx, and wine or deepin wine, but none of them works. For ibus, It just not work in wine apps; for fcitx, it will show an candidate window below the app's window, but the words cannot be inputted into those wine apps.

I am using KDE, and both ibus and fcitx works well in other programs. My desktop environment is started by xstart, so I added these lines in ~/.xinitrc in order to use fcitx

export XMODIFIERS=@im=fcitx
export GTK_IM_MODULE=fcitx
export QT_IM_MODULE=fcitx

And I have tried adding these lines to (for example) /opt/deepinwine/apps/Deepin-QQ/run.sh

env locale=zh_CN

export XIM="fcitx"
export GTK_IM_MODULE="fcitx"
export QT_IM_MODULE="fcitx"
export XMODIFIERS="@im=fcitx"

but it made no difference.

So is there's someway to use input method in wine programs

Re: [Solved] Input methods don't function in wine programs

Now I have solved the problem - there are other lines in the default run.sh setting input methods to ibus so my export lines were overridden. Omit these lines and fcitx functions well now.
