      This was no bug in translate5 - everything correct here - but a problem with Firefox on Windows for Korean and Vietnamese, preventing the users to enter Asiatic characters. Translate5 users with Korean or Vietnamese target language will get a warning message now, that they should switch to Chrome or Edge.

    Description

      When typing Korean combined characters (jamos) the typed characters are broken. This is presumably because Track Changes changes the typed characters before the operating system combines them to a new character what seems to be done on the fly / "live" in the consuming app (here: browser)

      See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_language_and_computers

      Therefore if opening a task of one of the languages Korean, Vietnames or Japanese AND if TrackChanges is active, a user who uses Firefox should receive a warning pop-up, that he has to "click away" with the message:

      • DE: Die Zeicheneingabe in Ihrer Zielsprache funktioniert aufgrund eines Fehlers in Firefox nicht korrekt. Bitte nutzen Sie Chrome, MS Edge oder Safari zur Bearbeitung Ihrer Aufgabe. Vielen Dank!
      • EN: Entering of characters does not work correctly  in your target language due to a bug in Firefox. Please use Chrome, MS Edge or Safari to edit your task. Thank you very much!
