Input method window should not break showing desktop (!6097) · Merge requests · Plasma / KWin

Xuetian Weng requested to merge work/input-method-window-and-show-desktop into master Jul 14, 2024

With recent change of using show desktop with plasma's edit mode, wayland input method becomes unusable when trying to type in the search box of widget explorer. This is because the input method window will currently break showing desktop under wayland.

Under X11, an input method window is traditionally implemented as an override redirect window. Under Wayland, the window should be treated similarily, but now we have a special type for input method window.
