Typing accented characters

I use InDesign CS5 on a Windows 7 system. How to type accented characters? I know how to find the characters I want to in the glyphs Panel and insert them from there, by double-clicking on them. But I want to be able to type Spanish (or other languages) and enter the special letters from the keyboard without having to go back in the glyphs Panel. Is there a way to do this?

I used FrameMaker for years. It was relatively easy to type Esc +'+ to get an acute accented one. Is this possible as well in the ID?

Thank you!

Take a look at javascript composed of Peter Kahrel to see if he can do what you want.

  • Accented characters pop up

    Since I have updated to OS X EL Capitan, if I hold down a button the pop-up with accented characters will not appear. By pressing the button for one second I can't type anything for like a minute. How can this problem be fixed?

    Try to go to the sources of the system/preferences/keyboard and add Spanish or French to the list, if they do not exist, then restart.

  • Do not display properly accented characters

    Hi guys

    In my application, I received a .json file encoded in ANSI format, that contains characters such as aeiou. The interface has a ListView that loads the json data.

    In Beta 2, the texts were displayed correctly, but in Beta 3, the special characters are displayed as a box with an X on the device and Simulator.

    If I encode the file in UTF-8, nothing I've shown on the ListView, and it appears in the log:

    JSON ERROR: "* line 1, column 1 syntax error: value, object, or array expected.»

    The json file is loaded in C++ with this code:

    JDA BB::Data:JsonDataAccess;
    QMap jsonCont = jda.load("data/file.json").toMap ();
    Lst QVariantList = jsonCont.value("items").toList ();

    dataModel = new GroupDataModel (QStringList)<>
    dataModel-> setParent (this);
    dataModel-> insertList (lst);
    dataModel-> setGrouping (ItemGrouping::None);
    listView if (listView)-> setDataModel (dataModel);

    The texts are loaded in the ListItems with QML code:

    {Label
    text: ListItemData.title

    }

    I searched the forums and found this thread of special characters, but this does not solve my problem.

    I would really appreciate any ideas.

    Looks to his saying that your json file is misformatted, not if your accented characters are a problem.

  • Accented characters in tagged text

    I write normally copy it into a text editor (TextPad), paste into InDesign and format in the story editor. Now I want to format it in TextPad and import the tagged text. But I find that accented characters on the numeric keypad, as well as other characters most frequently used - €, £-are being misinterpreted. For example R$ 8·25 million (approximately €3 million) is available as a R$ 8a·25 million (topic has ' ¬3 million) and Fundação de Amparo to research do Estado de São Paulo is rendered as Fundaa§a£ o of Amparo to research State of SECURITY£ o Paulo.

    I have the options for formatting the text ANSI or DOS file, and I used the headers < ASCII-WIN > and < ANSI-WIN >, but there seems to be no combination that brings the text properly.

    Substituting values for these characters Unicode gives me what I want and I can build a library of them to add in TextPad, but this is contrary to my goal more productivity.

    Can someone give me a formatting of the options so that I can use the numeric keypad to generate the extended characters in a form that will import as referenced text?

    k

    Not true. My example starts in Indesign, go to NoteTab (I have no TextPad, but I think that NoteTab is a pretty close contender), then back to Indesign.

    Try this: start Notepad, type some ALT characters, paste the ANSI-WINNER header at the top and that import into Indesign. TextPad is perhaps saving as something else than plain text.

  • Problem with accented characters

    Using the UTF-8 encoding in my Flex application (<? xml version = "1.0" encoding = "utf-8"? >).
    Using UTF - 8 ranking in the MySQL db and fields.

    When I manually insert a line in MySQL (through phpMyAdmin) with accented characters (ie: e, e, e,...), everything works fine.
    When I use my Flex application to insert a line (through php (amfphp) script), accented characters are modified when it is kept in the database.

    What is happening and what I can do to fix this?

    I just stumbled on this pair of days. This has to do with amfphp framework, so go to the gateway.php file and positioned like this: $gateway-> setCharsetHandler ("none", "UTF - 8","UTF - 8"); It worked for me with the same configuration you have.

  • Searches for a string of accented characters

    Hi all

    I have a db Oracle 9.2. There is a CUSTOMER table with a column called name. The database character set is WE8ISO8859P1. There are 35 million records in the CUSTOMER table, a small minority which have been seized, including accented characters, for example in the field of FAMILY name like o.

    I need to determine exactly how many lines contain accented characters and report on them. The majority of the lines do not have accented characters. I need a query that SELECTS only lines whose field NAME contains accented characters. In English, the request to declare these lines would be something like:

    SELECT THE LAST NAME OF THE CUSTOMER WHOSE NAME CONTAINS AT LEAST AN ACCENTED CHARACTER;

    or expressed differently in


    SELECT CUSTOMER NAME WHERE NAME CONTAINS at LEAST ONE CHARACTER < an or > z and < has or > Z;

    My string manipulation abilities are not very strong, and I would be grateful if someone could help

    I need a query that SELECTS only lines whose field NAME contains accented characters.

    SELECT SURNAME FROM CUSTOMER WHERE SURNAME != convert(SURNAME,'us7ascii')
    
  • Search for accented characters

    Hi all

    We have a column that has the focus. But when we do research we would like to use no accented characters.
    For example, when we type in "ALKARAKPEI", we get "ALKARAKPEI" and "ALKARAKPEI".

    ALKARAKPEI = > ALKARAKPEI
    DIKPOR = > DIKPOR

    Please give me some suggestions and ideal...

    Thanks in advance!

    Maybe

  • Alphabet key on my keyboard, typing special characters

    Hi, I wanted to ask you if you know about this feature, because it does not work on my PC, but I don't want it.

    When I want to write "" a "I need to press ['] [space] [a], and at least that I do not support on the space between the two I'm 'a'."

    Similar occurs with other characters. For example, I can get u, a, o, o, u, etc... But I don't want that, I just want to do what I'm typing. Another thing I noticed, is that it doesn't when I switch to the Serbian keyboard (Latin or Cyrillic).

    So, I would like to stop, but I don't know what to look for. This does not happen on my other PC. Yet, even if that happens any more after that I restarted the PC, it would be interesting to find out how to enable or disable this feature. Although I don't mind, it can be useful.

    ADDED: I would also say that is happening everywhere in Windows - based 2007 Microsoft Office, Internet Explorer, and Skype, in the field of research programs and files on the start menu and to rename files and folder.

    Thanks for your reply, Shivam!

    1. I don't remember making any changes... I have the same desire when I accidentally something press keyboard and I do not know what I pressed.
    2. About my PC, I cannot say anything meaningful, because it is not a particular model, and I also changed some components on that. Right now it's a relatively new installation of Windows 7 (a few weeks or more).

    Now, I managed to bring it back to what it was, and I have no idea what is the thing that solved my problem. Unfortunately, in Control Panel , I did not find language as you suggested, I found region and language, and from there, I went to the keyboard and languages, where I clicked on change keyboards... The only change that I remember now is that I had of the English (United States - International), and now I have chosen EFrench (U.S. ) ). It is very likely that I also changed some other settings, but I don't know what exactly does the job.

    It is an interesting option for someone who needs to write something in a foreign language, that I didn't need.

    Thanks for your help. I wish I could tell some information on what I was doing before this problem, and what exactly I did to bring it back to what it was.

    Kind regards!

  • Accented characters with diacritic folding the flag

    Hello

    When you use '-sign diacritic folding "indicator dgidx, is it possible to ignore certain characters of equivalent single accented character ASCII mapping?

    For example, I have this option enabled, but I need "n" and "n" behave as two different characters.

    Is this possible?

    Thank you

    There is not beyond the capacity of the box that I know. You could start a feature through support.oracle.com request for you to be able to define exceptions, and if you do, I would recommend including some use cases to explain the requirement of the company.

    The only way I can think to do this with the current software is a workaround - you must have a preprocessing step to map the character from one point of different code, then when you submit your search apply the same translation. I did previously to work around the problems of code points not supported (in short versions) in language thai and it works but you need to add a manipulator to your pipeline (or make the transformation in the data extract) and have a simple code before sending the query to short (before ENEQuery if via the API).

    Thank you

  • Error message when turn on computer so very strong and high beep for a minute, already entered in the password box and typing of characters is uncontrolled.

    When I turn on my computer an error message flashes but it's too fast to read, after which there is a strong and high slope beep. Then he'll ask me if I want to start my computer on Vista or run the memory diagnostics. When it gets to the entered password there are already characters and trying to type at other times the space key is out of control.

    I have run memory diagnostics and the computer to the factory settings of disks that I made, but it has not worked and I was just wondering if anyone knew how to fix?
