Doubling of accent characters

[hansek]

I have an issue with writing of accented characters in Czech language (e.g. ď, ť, ...) on Czech keyboard layout.

Standardly you can wrote those characters you need to firstly press AltGr + ´ and then press target character (e.g. AltGr + ´ and then d makes ď).

Since I have run zVirtualDesktop, it probably catches the first keystroke and system don't wait for another character and directly print doubled ´´

I believe it's connected to hotkeys definition or way how are the hotkeys catched.

Could you take a look on this issue?

I'm using latest 1.0.27 ;)

Thanks for pointing this out. I'll see what I can figure out. AltGr should be the equivalent to my Right Alt button and I am not handling this for accents. Currently I'm handling that as a standard ALT. I'll investigate further tonight.

@hansek I'm trying to understand how you would press these keys. Is it all one single combination or separate:

Like this...
AltGr + ` + d

Or like this...
AltGr + `
release above then press D

or like this....
AltGr
release
`
release
D
release

@mzomparelli it's like the second option you wrote:

AltGr + `
release above then press D

You can try it if you'll install Czech (QWERTZ) keyboard layout.

@hansek This should be fixed in version 1.0.28. Actually, this version is for you to tell me if it's fixed :). I can't really tell. I used the keyboard and was able to get it to type a key that I'm not used to seeing, using RightALT+Accent then D. I don't know if this is correct or not. I will leave this issue open until you let me know. 1.0.28 will be out in the next 20 minutes.

Ahhhh, I'm really sorry, now I see that I described a wrong form of typing this ď character. :(

The proper and windows standard way (which is still not working) how to write ď character is this:

1. press Shift + ´ (firstly press Shift, hold it and press ´)
2. release both keys
3. press d

Then the ď character should be printed on the screen.

ok, I think it's good now in v1.0.29. It's also way past my bed time. I'll leave this open pending your feedback. Thanks for your help.

Perfect, now it works!

Thank you very much and have a great day (or probably night) ;)
