Bug Description

Hi everyone, I'm typing this with onboard in linuxmint 19.3 cinnamon without any word completions/suggestions even though they're enabled in onboard preferences. Moreover, when these suggestions do work inside terminal, they're just autocomplete search of my own typing history inside the terminal with no context based predictions. I desperately need onboard word suggestions/predictions/auto-completion to work properly on all apps for linux, like it does on Windows 10 On-screen keyboard, as I'm handicapped & this is my primary mode of typing. Or is there any way to modify onboard via source to easily have Win 10 OSK like predictive word completion if its not yet implemented? If so, please guide me in that direction. Current onboard word suggestions work for me only partially and that too only inside terminal and web browser address search bar (tried in both ubuntu 18.04 & linuxmint 19.3 cinnamon).
