Question For Japanese Language Users

[edwinbradford]

I know there are a few people here who use their Zaurus for Japanese Language study like me. Have you noticed that problem whereby whenever you open the character input screen using the stylus to draw in characters, the input language switches automatically to Romaji. So whenever you close it again you have to switch it back to kana. Hardly the end of the world but it's the only thing on my C760 that doesn't work right and I wondered if anyone has a fix for it?

Otherwise the best little device I ever bought.

I'm not sure what you mean by that. Could you elaborate a bit?

I know exactly what you mean; this has been one of my biggest complaints when using the Zaurus. Unfortunately, I have yet to find out how to resolve the problem. I'm assuming that CRIM is sending a qcop message which changes the input mode, but I am not sure what message is being used or what channel it is being sent on.

Yeah, it's annoying. It's hard to believe that the Japanese users don't have a fix, or would want this behaviour in the first place.  It could be a side-effect of removing .qm files from i18n/ja/, although not the lib<im>.qm files 'cause I still have those.  Can anyone confirm this behaviour on an unmodified Z?

I tried qcoptest, but it didn't show anything...

I'm still not sure exactly what you mean -- I haven't noticed any change in the input languages when using Japanese handwriting recognition on my 3100. Do you think this has been fixed with the newer models?
