cannot rename folders. cannot usually finish naming folders upon creation.

[betsypl]

Binary package hint: nautilus

Right click on a folder, or a file, in Nautilus. Choose "Rename". Cannot type anything in the dialog box.

The same thing often occurs when trying to name a new folder or file (i.e., the dialog box appears, but cannot type in it).

It seems to happen only when using SCIM.

Thanks for your report, Are you using Compiz (Visual Effects)? Does it happens without them? Which video card do you have?

[betsypl (pfaff)]

This problem only seems to occur when the "shift" key is pressed. So, no capital letters can be used.

[betsypl (pfaff)]

Thanks for your quick response! I don't believe I'm using Compiz. My
video card is i810 Intel Integrated Graphics Chipsets. But I don't think
that the problem is visual because it's not just that the text doesn't
appear. It's actually not there.

I had the same problem until I closed SCIM app.

[Pedro Villavicencio (pedro)]

betsypl are you using SCIM too? it doesnt seems to be an indication here in the report, thanks.

[betsypl (pfaff)]

yes, I am. I can't really disable it because I have to work in Japanese
a lot.

[Seiti Yamashiro (seiti-yamashiro)]

But is the bug related to SCIM in your system?
Try to close it briefly and report the results if you can.

[betsypl (pfaff)]

No problems when SCIM is closed! That must the the issue.

Yes, this is a known bug in scim, and will be labeled as duplicate.

Thanks for reporting this bug, and please be encouraged to report any new problems you see in Ubuntu.
