Cannot input Japanese characters in editor with Google IME on macOS
Environment
- TeXstudio: TeXstudio 4.3.0 (git 4.3.0)
- Qt: Using Qt Version 6.3.1, compiled with Qt 6.3.1 R
- OS: macOS 12.5.1
- TeX distribution: TexLive (mactex on brew)
Actual behavior
I can type normally when I am not using IME (i.e., direct input in English), but, when I turn Google Japanese Input (2.25.4030.1) on, it ignores most of the input (I found that it accepts あ (a) and upper case alphabet input). I have no problem (a) using Google Japanese Input on other editors, and (b) using macOS' default IME on TexStudio.

How to reproduce
Just clean install IME and texstudio with brew.
brew install --cask google-japanese-ime
brew install mactex
brew install --cask texstudio
I am using default settings for TexStudio and Google Japanese Input.
This phenomenon occurs in Version 4 and above. Therefore, I recommend that you downgrade to version 3.1.2, etc. I hope this bug will be fixed soon.
