​This is what happens when I use Myanmar 3 (1.7.3) keyboard on Ubuntu 22.04.4 with Keyman for linux while I use Google doc - ေသေ​ေသေချာချာ ကြိုးစားလုပ်​ေနော်

I don’t encounter the above problem when I type Burmese using Myanmar 3 (1.7.3) keyboard using Libre Officer Writer.
Any comment? Help? Fix?

Welcome to the community @L_Z,

Thank you for reporting this issue. I could reproduce it on Ubuntu 22.04.3 and I have created a bug report that you can track at bug(linux): extra character inserted when typing in Google doc #12360.

Feel free to add more details to the report.

Have a nice day!

This looks like a bug in either Firefox or Google Docs. See 1916767 - Surrounding text doesn't work properly in Google Docs

When I use the Burmese keyboard that comes with Ubuntu, I don’t encounter this problem. However, typing with the built in keyboard is very weird for me because I cannot type using the sequence I would normally spell the words.
