In OOo 2.0.2 under Ubuntu Dapper I could hold down Ctrl+Shift, type the hex code for the character, and Writer would insert the character. ... Now Ctrl+Shift+u does not let me enter the hex code for a character. What happened and how do I fix it?
What desktop are you running? What exact sequence did you use with Ctrl+Shift+u (where do you hold and release what keys exactly)?
Using Fedora 5 (Gnome/Gtk), I found that the keyboard unicode entry using Ctrl+Shift+xxxx (this is feature of Gtk) broke after 2.0.2. I filed a bug but never got any official response. I don't know if OOo is broken, Gtk has changed, or Fedora 5 is just out of date somehow.
My other apps (e.g. Mozilla) still work fine with Ctr+Shift+xxxx. I've never heard of the Ctrl+Shift+u technique. <Joe --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
