Bug ID: 158490
Summary: Can't enter Alt-codes now
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.6.3.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Usually, I could enter codes using Alt command, such as em dash (—) by typing:
Alt+0151 on the numeric keypad. I don't have to slow my typing down to grab the
mouse and insert a code, and I insert such codes often.
Someone must have had the bright idea to map the alt key to the side panel
properties bar, because now when I enter alt+0151 with the numlock on, all I do
is cycle through the side panel.
Please don't make entering alt codes arduous by having us engage a tedious
interface to insert the code via menus.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Writer
2. Open the properties side bar, doesn't matter to what.
3. Be sure numlock is active.
4. Type alt+0151 like I did just now to produce: —
Actual Results:
No text appears. The properties side panel cycles through options.
Expected Results:
—
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
