Hello,

Yes, thanks, I have tried the Microsoft recommendations. They don't work in the 
NetBeans 16 IDE editor.

Hi,

There is no compose character on Windows.
If you want a character not available in your keyborad layout, you should:
- use character map
- or keep Alt key down and press the character code (avalaible in character 
map): for example É (upper e accute) Alt+0201

Regardes,

Arnaud

I don't use windows but believe it should be similar but with CTRL. Try 
pressing CTRL+`, release, then the key for the accent (e, u, a, ...)

Ämne: accented characters in NB 16 IDE editor



Hello,

I just switched from linux to windows 10, with Netbeans 16 installed. I need to 
be able to type accented characters in the editor (java) - characters that 
survive being saved in files. In the linux version, it was a matter of holding 
AltGr and a key representing the desired accent, releasing those keys, and then 
typing a letter. I can't seem to find mention of this function online in 
stackoverflow etc., and the netbeans mailing list search gave no results 
(although I could be using it incorrectly.)

Thanks.
