If you have only few diacritics, then it is probably more simple
to use ERT. For example u with umlaut you can write as \"u
(where \" is marked as latex style). The result is more portable
and simpler to write. Therefore, when I needed (only once in a
text) write something about grunder period of Czech history, I
have written gr\"under period and everything is OK.

Otherwise, you really much better with german keyboard
(Options/Keyboard).

BTW, you have to write typewriter doublequotes as Ctrl-" or
Ctrl-q (in order to prevent automatic translation into curly
quotes).

        Have a nice day
