Bug ID: 160261
Summary: Alt keys to insert special characters no longer work
in Writer as of latest update
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.6.5.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I use alt keys for special characters regularly in LibreOffice Writer and just
discovered today, much to my chagrin, that the one I use most now doesn't work,
but instead now opens some paragraph styles menu on the right instead.
PLEASE FIX. Clicking on the menus is not efficient, especially since I use the
alt keys two or more times *per line* in each document, each time I use Writer.
Thank you for your prompt attention.
Lesley
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Hold down Alt key.
2. Start typing ASCII character number (in this case 0169).
3. Discover paragraph menu on right rather than intended character to be
inserted into document.
Actual Results:
Already enumerated twice above.
Expected Results:
Already enumerated twice above.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
Just insert the ASCII special character in the document as has previously been
the case!
