I guess you will have to install the german layout as this deadkey stuff
is layout specific.
Fun fact is that you also cannot enter ^ with the Keyboard overview of
MacOS, when I switch to US keyboard all is fine for me.
fyi, the '^' key is left of the '1' key on a german keyboard on Macbook Pro

Do you know, if it's required to have German layout to be installed in
the system.
IIRC (away from mac right now), "^" is entered by pressing Shift+6 on
Mac (ansi keyboard with US keys layout) ...and it works.
What I'm thinking is that you're trying to enter the character in SynEdit.
and it might be that Cocoa doesn't report a certain key combinations
properly.
I presume you didn't have this issue in Carbon, thus it's neither
SynEdit bug nor macOS specific behavior, but rather LCLCocoa issue.
That's why I need to know keys combination in order to track the
problem on my end.
thanks,
Dmitry
