Archlinux Wayland Input Method Issues

fcitx5 Input Method Not Available

1. Set the virtual keyboard to fcitx 5 in the desktop environment settings

   

2. Configure ~/.config/<flags>.conf files
   Some electron packages read flags files from the ~/.config/ directory, for example:

   • [visual-studio-code-bin](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ visual-studio-code-bin) reads ~/.config/code-flags.conf
   • [google-chrome](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ google-chrome) reads ~/.config/chrome-flags.conf
   • Electron-based programs read ~/.config/electron-flags.conf or ~/.config/electron<electron-major-version>-flags.conf

   Configuration content:

   --enable-features=WaylandWindowDecorations
   --ozone-platform-hint=auto
   --enable-wayland-ime

3. For other software that cannot use input methods, add the following content to the startup environment variables:

   XMODIFIERS=@im=fcitx
   GTK_IM_MODULE=xim
