[tde-users] Umlaute and other keyboard special characters

Dear TDE users, I just installed TDE on openSUSE Leap 15.2 and I really like it. Thank you so much! I have a question about special keyboard characters such as the german Umlaute ä, ö, ü or the italian/french accents. Normally in Linux you can hold down the key <Shift> and then press <Ctrl>, which sets you into "Compose mode". Then, you can press for example the high quotes " and then a voyel like a, o, u and they are displayed with the dots on top. This is not working in openSUSE Leap 15.2 with TDE (same with LXDE). It just prints '"a'. In past versions, I had to set the variable QT_IM_MODULE to xim, but in openSUSE Leap 15.2 it is already set to xim and I still cannot compose Umlaute or accents. If anybody has any ideas or has figured it out, please let me know. Thanks in advance!
