Greetings, To insert a character using a number sequence requires the use of the ALT+code combination, not the CTRL+code combination. In WORD, typing ALT+61692 does insert a checkmark. However, in most other applications (such as Notepad, Excel, WRITER) typing this sequence is identical to typing ALT+252 (252 is the modulus of 61692 and 256); this sequence produces a superscript 3 character. If you want to insert the checkmark, the only thing I can think of is for you to insert it in a WRITER or Word document (the easiest way being Insert > Special character), and to copy/paste the checkmark in your video editing program.
I hope this helps. Rémy. Le vendredi 22 octobre 2021 à 16:35 -0400, charles meyer a écrit : > I’m trying to import a special character = checkmark into a vide > editing > program.
