Comments
Verified by means of the Input Method Framework demo application "IMFDemo.java" from the web page (https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/imf/api-tutorial.html) on MS Windows 10 OS that the issue: - is not reproducible with JDK 11+28, JDK 8u181 b13, JDK 8u131 b06. - is reproducible with JDK 8u131 b05, JDK 8 b132. Thus it is verified that the issue became resolved in the build JDK 8u131 b06 by the fix for the bug JDK-8147842. Closing the bug as a duplicate of JDK-8147842.
