Oni: Can't type quotation mark(")

[badosu]

Report from @finex:

Hi, I'm trying onivim (v0.3.0) and it doesn't accept quotation mark ( " ) which needs a three keys combination. Other chars like ~ (just two key combination) works as expected. I'm using the following keyboard settings (Archlinux/KDE):

rules: evdev
model: pc105
layout: us
variant: intl
options: eurosign:

Please tell me if can give you more details. Thanks!

Hmmm....I've had issues with " when I've swapped back and forth between keyboard settings (ie UK <-> US) #1058.

First thing to check would be the logs. Would you be able to run Oni.log.enableDebugLogging() in the Dev Tools console, and post the output of you trying to press "? (Ctrl+Shift+P then Dev Tools).

It should then start showing what keys Oni is attempting to resolve, so we have a bit more of an idea.
An example of the sort of output you should get can be seen in the ticket I linked above.

Ok, I've just tried. This is the log while I press " (ctrl + shift + '):

[Key event] Code: ShiftRight Key: Shift CtrlKey: false ShiftKey: true AltKey: false | Resolution: null

I've had the same issue on a Windows 7 machine with the US keyboard layout, i.e. the combination for the " key would only require shift+' for me and it also doesn't work. Maybe that helps narrow the source of the bug down

[GlassGruber]

Yea same very thing happened to me, and I use also a double language input on Windows 7.
Don't know if this can help, here is a little screen record, a small note is that I can't type " inside the command bar after the colon but I can type it in the omnibar (I don't know the exact name :P) via ctrl+p.

Same thing here, though my layout only requires me to press shift + ' for ". Fedora 27 if it helps.

I have the same issue, I'm running a multi-language setup on Windows (Swedish/US) and when I'm using the US layout it won't recognize the quotation mark (Shift + '). My console output mirrors the one from @finex above.

For other people who are affected by this bug I simply added this hack
oni.input.bind("<s-\">", () => oni.editors.activeEditor.input("\""));
to my config and now it seems to work.

(If you are not using US layout simply change the bind to whatever resolution the key event outputs after running Oni.log.enableDebugLogging() and trying to input a quotation mark)

EDIT: Okay here is another clue to maybe fixing this bug, " works like intended if I launch Oni with the US Keyboard Layout, but if I launch it with the Swedish layout, and switch to the US layout after the fact " does not work.

Hi, I've updated to 0.3.6 and the bug seems gone. Thanks :+1:

[Govinda-Fichtner]

I still have the same issue with onivim 0.3.6 on Ubuntu 18.04. Happens for me when I switch the keyboard layout from german to us and while having an onivim session open.

@finex particular problem is fixed, so ideally this thread would be closed.

However, it seems that other people have issues.

Can you elaborate your issues? Ideally on new threads so that we can differentiate distinct problems

[CrossR]

I think other people are having the same problem as my other issue: #1058.

Potentially we can close this and use my issue which has a bit more information in.

[badosu]

Ok, closing this in favor of #1058
