Yeah, ive been there and done that; the problen with the greek is the huge
number of characters required, i could never remember which combinations of
shift ctrl alt went with which characters which made it VERY slow to use. With
onboard a long click on, say, alpha, would bring up a little men

There is also a Greek layout. One thing that might help is that you can
configure multiple layouts and switch between them as needed.

Are you referring to the International English keyboard I referred to ?
If so, you have to go into the input devices to select the layout. On
openSUSE 15.1 & KDE, it's Configure Desktop > Input Devices. In
Keyboard, Layouts tab, near the bottom, you'll find the area for
configuring layouts. Ena
How do you access the extra characters from the keyboard? (I used to use ubuntu
onboard onscreen keyboard which was very useful, especially for clasical greek,
but since upgrading ubuntu to 18.04 i havent been able to get it to work for
extended characters) On Friday, 9 August 2019, 12:04:

I've been using this since my last post and while not ideal it is a
significant improvement over the characters dialoge, so thanks a lot for the
help.
I may ask later on that other forum but i fear i may find it difficult to
access on my phone (which for most of the time is my only internet acc
Hi Gary,
if you want to go with macros, the following will work:
The general part once (you might need to correct line breaks):
Sub lcl_InsertCharacter_Writer(byval sChar as string)
Dim oDoc as variant
oDoc = ThisComponent
Dim oCurrentController as variant
oCurrentController = oD
Nope, unfortunately not. The space is needed. But feel free to ask again on
ask.libreoffice.org where users with more expertise may find a solution for you.

I've tried (3), using \a for macron a,etc., and it sort of works, but, it
seems, the character sequence is replaced in the text only when preceded by a
space. Since this space is not removed when the replacement is made, and since
the vast majority of macron characters are not at the beginning
Thanks a lot for these references, i hope i might be able to get something
usable from them.

Thanks,that's an interesting idea to explore. But would i then lose the normal

I use xmodmap for that, e.g.:
/usr/local/bin/xmodmap -e 'keycode 33 = p P 0x00a7 0x00a7'

Hi,
I'm writing some Latin texts with long vowels indicated and so i'm frequently
having to go to the special characters dialog.
I'm wondering if its possible to set up certain keys in LO so that pressing,
e.g. ALT +A would enter a with macron character (and SHIFT +ALT +A for the
capital)?
