Summary: Japanese IME on Windows 10 makes invisible window over fullscreen game, StopTextInput no effect

Description Bart van der Werf 2018-09-29 15:55:08 UTC
When in fullscreen on windows 10 (no reproduction on windows 7 in testing) when triggering Hiragana input mode using japanese IME windows shortcuts (alt-tilde) or Japanese 109 layout metakeys causes an invisible window to be placed over the center of the game, causing a mouse click in that area to minimize the game and other input weirdness.

I could not find documentation on how to suppress ime input to allow WASD input without composing to happen.

StopTextInput had no effect.
