Hello. On linux, i can't use the compound shortcuts (like altgr + x, a for â, which i'm copy pasting) in chrome or firefox. It types a regular "a" instead.
It works fine on other applications.
I'm surprise i'm not finding anyone reporting the same issue, as this is pretty concerning.
Would you have similar experiences to share ? Or a fix suggestion ?
Thank you.
This was/is a known issue with GTK apps, which use their own input methods. Can you try setting "GTK_IM_MODULE=xim" in your environment before starting Firefox?

Thank you for your response ! I tried your suggestion but sadly it has no effect.
I was using i3-gnome as it has convenient user interface for things like settings, but i don't have those issue on regular i3 so, good bye i3-gnome.
Good luck for those that can't avoid the issue.
