Hi,
Maliit is selected in virtual keyboard settings, it shows up when using a KDE app like Dolphin or Konsole, but it doesn’t show up when using a non-KDE app like VLC or Discord.
How to fix this ?
Thanks

@KaKi87 Those apps are probably running under X11. Make sure they are running with native Wayland support, for Chromium apps you should add
--ozone-platform=wayland --enable-wayland-imeto the command line arguments.How do I check these ?
Where ?
Thanks
/usr/bin/discord --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland --enable-wayland-imeyou should be able to add it via editing it in the application launcher. But alternatively, I recommend trying out Vesktop.Unfortunately, it’s not changing anything, also I’m using BetterDiscord. Thanks
There’s actually a lot of overlap between Vesktop/Vencord & BetterDiscord as the devs tend to contribute to each other.
I already checked and there are plugins I’d miss very much.
fair enough.
Anyway, it’s not just Discord, but any Electron app, like Element for Matrix, Signal, etc. the additional command-line arguments don’t work on these either.
And what about VLC ? Also, my browser is Brave, also Chromium-based, on which the virtual keyboard doesn’t appear either.
Thanks

But what about the virtual keyboard ?
I’ve been looking through the docs and BRs, etc. and can’t seem to find info on your specific issue, I did find this but it maybe unrelated. Maybe worth reporting.
