Although you are using ibus, the problem seems similar to the one described in the fcitx5 wiki at this link: https://fcitx-im.org/wiki/Using_Fcitx_5_on_Wayland#GNOME.

Simply put, the input method's widget cannot display over the native GNOME UI. You might try enabling this extension to see if the issue persists.

ok.i will try it, thank you :)

@NinZeige I tried it. After applying the plug-in, the fcitx Chinese candidate box is above the pano, but I cannot backspace during the input. For ibus, the Chinese candidate box is under pano as before. In the case of fcitx, I think there may be a bug in pano's input box processing. I will try to fix it if I have time later. :)
