that that key combination has been trapped in LO.
I wonder if the original poster is aware of the availability and use
of the
Compose key? Linux has available the ability to make some key on the
keyboard
a Compose key. Then when you need a special character, like ö or ñ or
µ or €
you can get it without looking up the code--most of the sequences are
pretty
obvious.
It is true that there are many symbols in Unicode that the Compose
sequence
can't generate, but they are not common to a speaker of English or most
European languages.

Compose Key? I use Linux Mint and Ubuntu/MINT and I do not know where
such a key would be located on my standard keyboard[s] for both my
desktop and laptops.
