In Livecode 9.6.7 STABLE under Windows 10, I create a new stack with a
single new scrolling field. I switch to run mode (pointer tool) and with
a blinking insertion bar in the field, tried:
ALT+00A9
and
ALT00A9
Which should have produced a © symbol
Neither worked. I tried several other Unicode codes. None worked.
Bug https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=18702 should be reopened
It may be related to bug
https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=23688 as the optionKeyDown
(ALT key on Window) message is completely broken

Thank you for your reply.
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.

I thought I recalled a bug in the LC engine where using the keyboard
method of typing the character code, press ALT, and then press X. 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.
