WHAT IS THE BUG
The first Korean character is split into several jamo glyphs instead of being composed into a single Hangul syllable.
HOW TO REPRODUCE IT
- Open any page and focus the text editor.
- Type Korean text, for example,
한글한글, by pressing the following keys in order:ㅎㅏㄴㄱㅡㄹㅎㅏㄴㄱㅡㄹ. - Observe that the first character is split into individual jamo:
ㅎㅏㄴ글한글.
EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
The text should be displayed as:
한글한글
Korean jamo should be composed correctly into a single Hangul syllable.
ADDITIONAL CONTEXT
I didn’t experience this issue with older versions.
It may also be worth testing Chinese and Japanese input, as they use a similar IME composition mechanism.
For reference, this blog post provides a useful smoke test for CJKV IMEs.
Korean text input has been repeatedly broken across Anytype on every platform for over a year, and these issues have often taken several months to fix. As a result, I can no longer recommend Anytype to Korean-speaking users until the development team takes internationalization seriously.
