Using FXCanvas causes Windows 8 IME to show input field outside of the application window, when typing inside TextField.


Test code:

import javafx.embed.swt.FXCanvas;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.TextField;
import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.FillLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell;

public class FXCanvasBug {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Display display = new Display ();
        Shell shell = new Shell(display);
        FXCanvas canvas = new FXCanvas(shell, SWT.EMBEDDED);
        shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());
        canvas.setScene(new Scene(new TextField("Type here"), 200, 100));
        shell.open();
        while (!shell.isDisposed ()) {
            if (!display.readAndDispatch ()) display.sleep ();
        }
        display.dispose ();
    }
}

Normal input: http://imageshack.com/a/img661/4255/hwdCiO.png (text should appear inside textField)

The version with normal input is made inside Eclipse RCP 4.4, with SWT_AWT + JFXPanel to replace FXCanvas. But it only works inside Eclipse RCP, not as standalone application. It's not really usable due to serious flickr that happens to SWT_AWT bridge.
