I've been enjoying using Frescobaldi for creating Lilypond scores, it
makes many things much easier.
I've been setting vocal pieces with German lyrics, and trying to use
Tools| Special Characters to find things like a and u with Umlauts,
and the double-s character that looks like a Beta.
I find it *extremely* difficult to find anything in those tables. I
finally found upper and lower case U with dieresis, which seems to be
the same as an Umlaut. But every time I need it, it takes me forever
to find it. I can find no trace of the double-s character.
Any clues on how I can find what I'm looking for?
Hi Tim,
Are you on Windows? Linux?
In Frescobaldi, it's pretty easy I've found to keep special characters
on this drop-down menu item and everything is pretty handy. Which menu
item did you select? Latin Supplement has all the umlauts, accents, etc.
but you could also install a character map outside of Frescobaldi for
easy copy and pasting if that is still not to your liking. I can suggest
a few if you'd like that route. :)
(see attached)
Does that help?
