If I >remember correctly, Mattias eventually found the reason and fixed it. >Don't know why the problerm rearises... I had to revisit this issue and found the bugtracker mention above. It turns out that using Ctrl-Alt as a compose key combination instead of AltGr I get the correct characters also in a RealVNC connection to the RPi where Lazarus is running. Tested these: [ ] { } | $ \ ~ @ £ The Lazarus code editor switches me to the tab next left when I use AltGr so all I enter afterwards gets into the wrong file... I just have to remember NOT to use AltGr in the Lazarus code editor when working through VNC in the future.... -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
