B4J Question Input Method Position not following the caret

[xulihang]

Hi,

Normally, this Chinese input method should appear following the caret or cursor.

But the input method is at the bottom when running javafx apps made with B4J. How to set the input method position?

found this: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/imf/index.html

The input method client API provides interfaces and classes that enable text editing components to communicate with input methods and implement a well-integrated text input user interface

the javafx doc is more relevant, but do not know how to use it. https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/javafx/api/javafx/scene/input/InputMethodRequests.html

Gets the location of a specified offset in the current composed text, or of the selection in committed text. This information is, for example, used to position the candidate window near the composed text, or a composition window near the location where committed text will be inserted.

It works well on osx. Maybe it's a jre and system's problem.

Worth testing with Java 11. This is handled internally by the JavaFX engine.

openjdk11 has the same result. I solved this by installing a suitable input method which is designed for windows8+
