Obviously, it was possible in earlier versions of LC. So, could someone be kind enough to make a quick test with the most recent versions of LC, by typing text inside a field, if special characters can be used, like alt+144 for É, and possibly on azerty and qwerty keyboards ? Thank you in advance.

For example, to type a dollar symbol ($), type 0024, press ALT, and then press X, didn't work in Livecode. However, I just tried searching the Livecode Quality Center for a bug number and couldn't find it so perhaps I am mis-remembering. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com<mailto:use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode Devin Asay Office of Digital Humanities Brigham Young University _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
