I can't use special characters in a Commit.

[goenaga]

Hello, when I try to write a Commit with accents, it doesn't let me type them. For example, when I write in Spanish: "Información de disponibilidad stock," this text is supposed to have an accent on the "o," but when I press the accent key and then the "o," nothing happens—it just doesn’t type anything. You’re doing an amazing job, but please fix this whenever possible.

EDIT: if i write ó in text editor and do copy paste it works. So the problem is on typing.

Thank you very much in advance!

I just tested and I can use accents, maybe is OS related. I am using Windows 11. Which OS are you using @goenaga ?

I'm on Debian, maybe this can help:

desarrollo@portatil-hp:~$ cat /etc/os-release

And one more thing I discovered, I can write any special character but type accent on any vocalic, no. In case it helps.

I can type ó just fine with Spanish layout on KDE Xorg. What input method/DE you use, IBus/Fcitx?

[albertodlc]

I just tested in a VM with Debian and it works fine

I have the same issue on Fedora with french keyboard.
I can type accentuated charater which a dedicated key.

But for characters that require two steps (like ê which requires pressing ^ then e), nothing happens.

I think this issue should be reported to Avalonia.

If you are able to compile this project locally, try turning off the EnableIme option in SourceGit.Native.Linux.SetupApp to see if this issue is resolved.

I had to set the Dotnet SDK to version 8.0 because of my environment, but disabling the EnableIme option works and I can type any accented character.

Done. You can download the latest CI build from Github Action.

Unfortunately, this doesn't work.
I have to explicitly set EnableIme = false for this to work.

            builder.With(new X11PlatformOptions()
            {
                EnableIme = false,
            });
