ibus-ui-gtk

Description of problem:

There is a weird ui show up on my desktop, and I figured out that it comes from ibus-ui-gtk3 because after I killed the process of ibus-ui-gtk3, it disappears. Check the attached screenshot.

This happened days ago, but I have no idea where it comes from at that moment, so I'm not sure whether it happens after I do 'dnf upgrade' or not.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

ibus-1.5.17-1.fc26.x86_64/ibus-1.5.17-1.fc27.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot up system
2. The weird ui show up at top-right or top-left of the screen, it can be dragged around. It shows on top of any other app windows.

Actual results:
Weird UI.

Expected results:

ibus-ui-gtk3 is no longer launched in GNOME desktop so it should not happen.
I don't know which part is the handler GUI but it might be Property Panel.
You can hide the GUI with ibus-setup -> "Do not show" in Show property panel if the GUI is the part of Property Panel.

I didn't see "Do not show" option, but I have "Show icon on system tray" unchecked under "General" tab, it doesn't help.

ibus-ui-gtk3 is always launched on my system after boot up. I used xwininfo to check where the ui comes from:

$ xwininfo 

xwininfo: Please select the window about which you
          would like information by clicking the
          mouse in that window.

xwininfo: Window id: 0x60000f "ibus-ui-gtk3"

I think you can find "Show property panel" in "General" tab.

You're right, the windows doesn't show after hide the property panel.
Comment 5 fujiwara 2017-12-06 08:03:40 UTC 
Not sure why your property panel shows a wrong size.

But the original issue is that ibus-ui-gtk3 should not be launched in GNOME desktop.

I think you can check with `ps -ef` command if ibus-daemon is launched by imsettings .

If ibus-daemon is launched by gnome-shell, it should be `ibus-daemon --panel disable` .

I"d ask imsettings why imsettings launch ibus-daemon in GNOME desktop.
Comment 6 Akira TAGOH 2017-12-06 10:45:21 UTC 
because gnome-settings-daemon doesn't have org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.keyboard schema anymore (ref: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=772370). thus imsettings can't detect if GNOME is responsible to manage IM or not.

dunno if it is still possible or simply give up to do that and disable it completely on GNOME at all.
Comment 7 fujiwara 2017-12-07 03:35:44 UTC 
I guess imsettings detects active in org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.keyboard .
How about checking the existence of /etc/xdg/autostart/org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.Keyboard.desktop ?
Comment 8 Akira TAGOH 2017-12-07 05:26:05 UTC 
aha, so removing that file or something like that would behaves like settings false to org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.keyboard.active in the past release?
Comment 9 fujiwara 2017-12-07 07:24:54 UTC 
I think so. My understanding is the plugin library is changed to gsd-keyboard.
