[Bug 1205713] Re: unable to type Greek characters to the dash
What is the progress ?
With the latest daily iso and the Xmir enabled, we still cannot type Greek letters to the Dash or the HUD except of accented letters (έ. ύ, ϋ, ΰ, ί, ϊ, ΐ, ό, ά, ώ) !
Also when the keyboard is set to Greek layout the shortcuts of the ctrl+<any_key> format don't work!
Is it possible to not that we won't be able to use shortcuts for copy, cut, paste etc when typing Greek?
With a such a big malfunction when will we be able to test if all works properly? Is the current bug not enough for the above issues or should we file another one? Would that be an ibus bug?
The next milestone of Unity 7.1.1 was due to 2013-08-15 but has not been released yet. Is any of these matters addressed in it?
@ Brandon Schaefer (brandontschaefer) or anyone else of the developer
team, please explain us what exactly the comment #17 means and what we
must be prepared for!

Title:
unable to type Greek characters to the dash
Status in Unity:
Fix Committed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
On Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy, when i switch to the Greek layout, i cannot type any greek character to the Dash's search field.
The pointer does not move at all, which means that it is not just an appearance problem, but there is no input at all of the character.
The same applies when i try to use the "Execute command" field that appears when pressing the Alt+F2 keyboard shortcut.
This has only to do wiith greek characters, as other characters that are not related to the keyboard layout (such as numerical characters, dots, comas, hyphens etc) can be typed normally regardless of the keyboard layout setting.
** Workaround **
In the terminal:
im-config -n xim
Then reboot!
