Chinese (intelligent pinyin) is not working well

  • 772

when selecting target Chinese character's number, it will display the number instead of the character I needed. Any thoughts?

Ubuntu Version:18.04, Desktop, ibus Libpinyin

e.g. when selecting the third one, it will display as 证件3 when selecting the third one, it will display as 证件3

chinese 18.04 pinyin

  1. I had the same problem as yours after installing some updates yesterday. You can shut down ibus intelligent pinyin and install fcitx-googlepinyin through apt-get.

    In Regions and Languages > Manage Installed Languages -> Keyboard Input System change it to fcitx from ibus. Reboot.

    Now you use Ctrl + Space to switch between input system instead of Super + Space. I don't know if googlepinyin has some other incompatibilities, but as far as I can see it doesn't have the problem ibus-libpinyin has that bothered us.
