Wrong position of input window with fcitx and sogoupinyin input method on ubuntu 20.04

[Sud0x67]

Dear engineers: When I use a Chinese input method, the input window is at a wired position(left bottom) and I can't see preview texts. shown as below.

I have tried the option :-Dauto.disable.input.methods=false , but it didn't work. Finally, I found a innormal patch idea patch which solved this problem but with other side effects, for example that I can't use markdown plugin with this patch. As I kown, this bug appeared 8 years ago, please fix it officially so that we can use pycharm more conveniently.

And bellow is the diagnose information for fcitx, which may be helpful:
