## Known Issues
46+
47+
There is a known bug in the TIS library of macOS that switching keyboard
48+
layouts doesn't work well when done programmingly, especially between complex
49+
input sources like [CJK](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CJK_characters).
50+
Kawa once tried to resolve this problem using hacky workaround, which caused
51+
more bugs, did more bad than good. The option is removed in v0.1.3, and I
52+
decide to wait for the fix from macOS.
53+
54+
However, if a nice workaround is found, please upload it as an issue or PR. I
55+
would be happy to consider adopting it.
