international character selection offset on high-dpi screen

Thanks for the bug report. I can't reproduce it in Vivid, but will try in Utopic later. 1.1.0~1908-0ppa1~utopic is slightly outdated too by now. We should get you an updated snapshot just in case.

Revision 1944 of trunk is now available in our Snapshots PPA.

Thanks! I tested the same procedure with 1.1.0+1944-0ppa1~utopic as described above and got the same observation.

Found it, the scaling was applied twice. Looking at your screen-shots there was another issue with keys getting stuck on the main keyboard. This shouldn't happen anymore either. Try it please and let me know how it goes.

Francesco, another snapshot please. Thanks in advance.

Revision 1949 of trunk containing the fix will be available in our Snapshots PPA for utopic and vivid as soon as launchpad has finished building them. Trusty and precise will follow later this evening.

Confirmed, 1.1.0+1949-0ppa1~utopic fixes the issue perfectly!
Thanks (again) for your very fast response. (From other projects I'm rather used to a response no earlier than a month and a fix after min. half a year.)

Hi,

Thanks for the confirmation that your bug is fixed.

By the way, Onboard 1.1.1 has just been released containing among others this fix.

PS: I fully agree: Marmuta is doing an outstanding job with Onboard since quite some time, which is really great from his part.
