1. Switch input method to Changjei vers. 3 (a table method)

2. Switch to full-width mode either by clicking shift-space or clicking the icon

3. Type some symbol, or try to type some uppercase letter

Result:
(a) The symbols are still half width
(b) Uppercase letters do not appear at all (even in half width form)

Hi Ambrose,

Thanks for the report and sorry for the long delay to reply.

I think I can more or less reproduce this bug, but I still need some
information from you to clarify the situation.

First, in my test, in gedit the Changjie input method indeed behave
strangely for full-width English characters or symbols, however in
gnome-terminal everything seems to be working fine.  What application
were you testing for this bug?  And can you test it again in
gnome-terminal to see if it works well there?

And in fact these two things are separate:

This is expected behavior.  In SCIM terms, the symbol are called
punctuations, and the full-width or half-width of punctuations are
controlled differently than English characters.  To input full-width
symbols, you need to click on the icon with a comma and a period, see
them changing to Chinese style, and input symbols again.  The shortcut
to change this is Ctrl-. (that is Ctrl-Period).

This is something I can reproduce.  In gedit, scim seems confused when I
hold Shift key down, and keep switching between Chinese mode and English
mode, and somehow hold some keyboard inputs.  However as I said before,
in gnome-terminal it seems to work properly.
