Special characters in text boxes

[Anonymous]

Has it disappeared from AC8.1 ?
I use PowerPro to insert special characters (Ø, ‡, |, etc) in every windows application using keyboard shortcuts, but it doesn't work anymore. I tried to use the standard way (ALT+0216 = Ø, for example), but it won't work either... My only solution was to paste the wanted character.

Is it my config or generalized ?

Hello
I did bring up the same topic a while ago (after your query though). Entering of special characters after v8.1 suddenly became such a tedious task. The responses I got indicated that it was an archicad issue.

I've now decided to post the request to the user interface wishes.

take care

I've just found out that if you use [ctrl alt] + code, then you can enter the special characters using the keyboard shortcuts.

Not sure why this was changed.
