(On Windows, GeckoFX is only needed for Graphite fonts.) However, there are a number of issues with Gecko on Precise. If you need non-roman support, at this point we recommend using Trusty with Gecko turned on. However, there still may be some issues with automatic keyboard switching and tabbing between fields (need to tab twice).<\/li>\n<li>Not all controls have been converted to use Gecko, so some will still display boxes for certain non-roman scripts. Some examples include: the History report for Send\/Receive and the keyboard test area in the WeSay Configuration Tool.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"top border\"><a href=\"#top\">top<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A release candidate of WeSay 1.5 is now available.
