I am switching between European, US and Chinese character sets under Mate, albeit on CentOS 7, and am having a problem retaining keyboard/character set choice when switching between windows, even within one app when moving between different entry windows. Whenever I move between entry windows, or even hitting ENTER within a Chromium window, it switches back to default. Very frustrating as you can imagine... As far as I can tell, the problem may not lie within fcitx but within Mate itself.

I thought I would resend the above hoping there is someone who has experience with both Western and Asian languages and using fcitx to switch between them...
