[desktop-discuss] bug? iiimx IM status window

[Fuyuki Hasegawa - Sun Microsystems]

By defualt iiim-panel should be used in JDS instead of the attached window.

Launch iiim-properties and select either of the following at
"Input Method status and switcher placement" choice:

"Use Input Method Swicher application" - iiim-panel will be used
"None" - neither iiim-panel nor attached window will be used
"Follow desktop default" - iiim-panel for JDS, attached window for CDE

And click Apply/OK button, then the attached window should go away
when applications get input focus.

Thanks,
Fuyuki
