--- Comment #36 from Derk-Jan Hartman <[email protected]> --- > Just for reference: Either I didn't read all the comments well enough or > nobody > quite mentioned the fact that all modern desktop operating environments have a > built-in a Character Map tool: Windows (with pretty full Unicode since NT 4), > Gnome, KDE, and Mac OSX (called "Character viewer"). On Mountain Lion, it's even simpler. (Straight in the edit menu, ctrl-cmd-space). I mentioned it, but the problem is indeed: 1: no one knows them/uses them 2: there is no trigger in HTML5/JS to open the panel So some ideas: 1: Educate the user: Add a 'more characters' link in the insert symbol editor, that detects OS of user and links to a page explaining how to access this panel on his OS. 2: Lobby HTML5 WG to expose these panels to JS -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
