Question: Copyrightright, registered, trademark and other alt symbols? #686
Comments
I got what I wanted by constantly pasting the missing characters to the keyboard, but man, its a hot mess. Well, at least they're there. It could't take the bold tick mark though. ™➥➦©➩¼½®¾ Right down the middle row, right down slide, skipped the }] symbols, but bumped paste as plain text to the L key. The remaining keys went to the num pad 456 keys. If I want any other order, I'm gonna have to do some dang editing. |
That's what the compose key is, it's on the middle of the arrow keys. The arrows you want though don't seem to be in there. To make your layout you can use a |
Ok. We have definitely gotta work on a wiki or documentation or manual here. I do searches before asking anything because I don't want to reinvent the wheel. There's way too many features in this keyboard for them to be remotely intuitive! |
Dittos, @JackDSRS. Julow has a neat state-machine where the legends change and invalid keys dim IF you start a compose sequence correctly. The file that drives that engine is 445 Kb, but I have that plus the one from Hacker's. I too mostly grab my favorites and copypaste them into a custom layout. |
Sorry to ask yet another stupid question but how do I enter symbols I can't find on the keyboard? Alt combinations, like,
Copyright © Alt + 0169
Registered ® Alt + 0174
Trademark ™ Alt + 0153
One fourth fraction ¼ Alt + 0188
One half fraction ½ Alt + 0189
Three fourth fraction ¾ Alt + 0190
Yes, these have been cut and pasted as text from a website, and yes, some exist as emoji's but:
I'd rather not create an entire new keyboard or tweak another app .json, .dat, .sys, or whatever file again when a keyboard combination already exists. Also, as text, I can bold, italic, enlarge, color or modify the text inline with other text or by itself with normal text options
I can't do those types of text modifications with emoji's.
This is more important in digital art apps as emoji's may have to be independent from text but part of a slogan, and text effects applied, like arching, animating or warping. Finding, clipping and pasting is maddening.
So, again, anyway to add these Alt + number combos? I can do Alt and the first number but then the Alt key releases. If I do swipe/hold Alt, the Alt key stays up, but the number codes do nothing. I've tried it inside the 123+ character keyboard as well.
I smell a "You're SOL coming" but it's worth asking.
