Support accent mark and umlaut character ('¨) while writing

[ppnon]

When the accent or umlaut key is pressed, the corresponding character is not written in the note. But they can be copied into the note without problems.

System: GNOME Shell 3.36.4 Pop!_OS 20.04 LTS x86_64 LANG=en_US.UTF-8

sorry that's sadly not my problem, but a GNOME Shell bug. You can try to type in the overview search entry: it'll do the same. Or in the alt+f2 dialog. It's even more ridiculous with ÉÈÀÇ etc. where the character is typed... but in lowercase

I can confirm this problem because of ibus and gnome-shell. I can use the note with English only. But there is another problem, that input source option doesn't be applied for the note. So even if the last time I use English with Note, then I switch to Chrome, then switch back to note. The ibus keeps the last Input Method. I think if you can make the note as an application it would work.

An application supports input method is https://github.com/konkor/cpufreq

Yes this cpufreq application is an application so it behaves like any normal application... 🤔 what's your point, here we're talking about an extension, i'll not throw my entire code away and start a new project from zero just because GNOME Shell has a bug regarding accentuated characters.

The only way to make GNOME Shell work is to fix GNOME Shell, not to shun it
