Describe the bug When typing Japanse using Google Japanese Input

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Japanese_Input or other non-alphabetical language using IME(eg. Chinese) Escape is usually used to cancel the IME floating window, which shows the possible choices for input. (works in most other apps like vscode, in Command Palette ...

in sleek, Escape while IME window exist would close the New/Edit Window

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

• Open New/Edit ToDo window
• Switch to Google Japanese Input(will help if you need)
• Type something to show the IME window
• Press Escape

Do you see any error entries in sleeks developer tools? no

Expected behavior Cancel the IME Window, but leave the New/Edit Window

in 1.0.6-3 Beta, both IME and New/Edit Window are closed

Screenshots Attachment shows New ToDo Window, and IME window to pick words From there if Escape is pressed, both windows disappear

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 10 Pro

@nutnutwin , I am reproducing it the right way in this screencast?

In the end I press Escape and it only closes the IME layer. If this is the right behavior, could you please check the 1.0.6-1, if it works also on your system like this?

@ransome1 Hi, the screenshot you posted, is how I would love it. On previous problematic version,

• Microsoft Japanese IME works
• Google Japanese IME does not work

on 1.0.6-1 released today, both works

Thank you so much

@ransome1 Hi, been a while

in 1.0.6-1 Jun 18, 2021 this problem has been fixed

but in

sleek-1.2.0-rc.3-win April 12, 2022

this problem happens again.

Will try to narrow down where the degression happened

@ransome1

due to limited time I only tested Stable Releases It seems the degression happened between 1.1.6〜1.1.7 2022, March

1.1.3
	➤Works Fine
1.1.5
	➤Works Fine
1.1.6
	➤Works Fine
1.1.7
	➤Degression

@nutnutwin could you please check if this occurs in 2.0.1?

@nutnutwin I switched my input language to Japanese and was able again to open the IME window. Pressing escape does close it. Only another press on escape will close the dialog window. I hope it works like this on your end as well. If not, please re-open here and I will take another look at it.
