Dear Maintainer,

I don't quite know where to start, and feel free to
re-assign/whatever... but:

On my laptop (but not on my other computers, which have much more
software installed), fcitx menus don't work. Please see the attached
images. One is that, after switching the layout in awesome, the fcitx
input method indicator becomes unusable (menu-1). But even without that,
the whole right-click menu tree for eg. bringing up the config menu,
breaks horribly under awesome as well as under gnome-session (menu-2).
However, the character selection box appears and actually shows
characters.


Kind regards,
--Toni++

I don't think this is a problem in fcitx, but rather you are not using
a composting window manager. The default UI of fcitx uses cairo and
pango, and it is using transparent effects. Can you please have a try
with fcitx-ui-light? It's the default UI in fcitx's 3.x era, which
makes use of xlibs and xft for rendering.

Thanks,
Aron
