Re: Problem with the 'r' replace command and the US-Extended keyboard
The option still exists and is called "Draw marked text inline". Unchecking it will fix it as before. Did you try that? I do agree it's kind of a bug as I'm not a big fan of using advanced preferences to mask an implementation issue. Please file an issue at https://github.com/macvim-dev/macvim/issues so I can triage. Otherwise as Tony Mechelynck mentioned digraphs work too and is cross platform. The entry method here (Option key sequence) is a Mac-specific method of entry and there's still value in support that as MacVim aims to support native macOS features as much as possible.

Re: Problem with the 'r' replace command and the US-Extended keyboard
P.S. Combining characters and precomposed characters can even be used together, as in the first syllable of the dactylic hexameter scansion of Dǣdălŭs īntĕrĕā Krētēn lōngūmquĕ pĕrōsus Ēxsĭlĭō tāctūsquĕ lŏcī nātālĭs ămōre… where AFAIK there is no precomposed æ with caron.

I'm not on a Mac so I'm answering in general "Vim" terms. I see two ways to add a macron (or a breve) on a vowel with no special OS-related settings; this assumes that your 'encoding' is set to utf-8 and that 'fileencoding' (singular) for the file in question is either empty or some Unicode charset. Method 1: Add a combining macron or breve. This method does not remove the existing vowel but adds an additional accent which is displayed at the same place in the text. This "composing character" must be placed immediately after the "spacing character" for the vowel (place your cursor on the vowel in Normal mode, then hit a). In Insert mode, Ctrl-V u 0304 (with no spaces in between) adds a combining macron to the letter immediately before the cursor, and Ctrl-V u 0306 adds a combining breve. Method 2: Replace the vowel by a precomposed vowel-with-macron or vowel-with-breve Method 2a: by making a keymap (Requires a Vim compiled with +keymap, se the output of ":version"). For such a low number of characters I don't recommend making a keymap but I have written a HowTo about keymaps at https://vim.wikia.com/wiki/How_to_make_a_keymap Method 2b: By using digraphs (requires a Vim compiled with +digraphs, see the output of ":version"). The digraphs for precomposed vowel+macron and vowel+breve are already defined. (I think, however, that y-breve doesn't exist; but y is only used in Latin for transliteration of Greek names so maybe you can do without it). Use the following (with no spaces) when Vim expects you to type a character into the editfile: Ctrl-K a - (the last of these is a minus sign) gives a+macron Ctrl-K e - gives e+macron etc. Ctrl-K a ( gives a+breve Ctrl-K e ( gives e+breve etc. Vim regards each of these Ctrl-Kxx combinations as one letter for e.g. the operand of the Normal-mode r command. They also work in Insert or Replace, and even Command-line, modes. HTH, Tony. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_mac" maillist. Do not top-post!

Problem with the 'r' replace command and the US-Extended keyboard
I had a quick look here to see if this was already discussed, but couldn't see anything. I am using MacVim 7.3-53 (the stable release as best I can tell). I also use the US-Extended keyboard to enter a lot of vowels with macrons (opt-a + vowel). I also convert a lot of texts without the macrons to have them. (I am a Latin teacher). When I use replace mode (the 'r' command) and then type the 'opt-a' all looks good, I get the free-floating macron, but then vim ignores the next letter completely: e.g. opt-a+i gives me just the macron not the 'i' with a macron. If I hit another 'i' then it goes into insert as you would expect. This works properly in the vim 7.2 shipped by apple in /usr/bin, and I would have sworn that it worked in previous MacVim versions, but I can't be sure. Can anyone point me at either what I doing wrong, or where I should report this as a bug?

Re: Problem with the 'r' replace command and the US-Extended keyboard
Go into the advanced prefs and untick the inline marked text option. The only downside is that with the experimental renderer you won't see the combining character until the following character is typed (the default renderer doesn't exhibit this problem).
