The issue is that prompts are not being entered properly in the input box, which is extremely inconvenient. This bug seems to have existed since the early versions of Cursor, and I wonder whether there is any intention to fix it.
Even after multiple updates, the issue still does not appear to have been resolved. Many users in the community have already reported this problem, so it is disappointing that it feels as though you are aware of the issue but have no intention of fixing it.
I would appreciate it if you could look into this matter seriously and provide a fix.
Hey, thanks for the report and the screenshot. I can see the chat input (Ask mode, Auto). Latin characters work fine there, and that matches a known IME issue on Linux where the first character won’t type into an empty field. We’ve seen similar reports from Korean users on IBus and Chinese users on fcitx5. I can’t share an ETA for a fix yet.
To narrow it down, can you tell me:
Which IME framework are you using, IBus, fcitx5, or something else?
Are you on X11 or Wayland?
For now, here’s a workaround that’s helped other users. Type any Latin character or a space first, then switch to the Korean IME. Not perfect, but it avoids having to copy paste from another app.
Thanks, that helps. It means the bug isn’t tied to a specific display server. We see the same thing with fcitx5 for Chinese users and with IBus.
We don’t have a full fix yet, and I can’t share an ETA. Right now there’s one working workaround: type any Latin character or a space into the empty field, then switch to the Korean input method. After that, typing works normally. It’s not perfect, but it avoids copying text from another app.
