I'm testing with KDE5 and that works correctly here. When I type, the IM input
box is shown below the cursor. Compared to your IM input box my candidates are
shown left to right. No idea if this is configurable or depends on some
setting.

I'm just trying to copy the behavior of the gtk3 backend. For me gtk3 and gtk
always keep the cursor at the start until you commit / select the candidate.
gen doesn't show a pre-edit here at all. FWIW for Qt5 the cursor position would
be easy enough to change, but I would like to get a general understanding, how
this is supposed to work.

Can you check if SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3 soffice shows a different behavior for
you?

(And always check "About Libreoffice" for the real VCL plugin in use.)

Now my setup is using fcitx. My input method is Shuangpin, where Google tells
me it's an input method for Chinese, which I don't know at all. I've just typed
anything on my German keyboard and checked that gtk3 is basically showing the
same behavior.

Anyway, IM input works as far as I can tell, which this bug report is about.

Please open new bug for those two new problems, otherwise this will eventually
become a never ending story where everyone adds their related bugs. Feel free
to add this bug to the "See also" list and add the KDE and CJK to the "blocks"
list.

And thanks for testing.
