SYMPTOMS
When you use the Chinese Traditional DaYi (version 6.0) Input Method Editor (IME) or the Chinese Traditional Array (version 6.0) IME on a Windows Vista-based computer, you may experience the following issues:
- The associate phrase window will not automatically disappear after you switch the focus among the windows of a multi-window application, such as Microsoft Outlook.
- Redundant spaces appear before the characters that you type if you type the initial character immediately after a region boundary.
- The IME candidate window for symbols does not jump to the next page of the candidate list after you press the SPACEBAR. Therefore, you have to press PAGE DOWN to make the window jump to the next page.
