Hello, ist it possible to enter unicode characters into oXygen by the use of shortcuts? I only found the "Character Map" which is also described here: http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-oxygen/editing-documents.html#working-with-u... but thats nit very convenient ... :-) Best, Tom -- Thomas Zastrow Seminar fuer Sprachwissenschaft Universitaet Tuebingen http://www.sfs.uni-tuebingen.de/dialectometry/ Wilhelm Str. 19 D-72074 Tübingen Tel.: 07071/29-73968 Fax: 07071/29-5214

on Mac OS X, there is a character palette, available under the Keyboard menu.

On Mac OS X you can also use "Unicode Hex Input" as your input method. To do so * launch System Preferences * choose "International" * choose the "Input Menu" tab * scroll down the list to "Unicode Hex Input" (which is very near the bottom) and check it * optional: check "Show input menu in menu bar" -- very helpful, as it shows you at a glance which input keyboard you are using, and using one while you think you're using another can be the source of significant confusion and thus frustration Now, while in oXygen or any other Unicode-aware editing environment, you can enter Unicode characters via their 4-digit (hexadecimal) code-points. To do so: * select "Unicode Hex Input" as the keyboard from the keyboard menu (often shows up as a national flag) * type the four hex digits while holding down OPTION. E.g., opt-0 opt-3 opt-C opt-0 inserts a GREEK SMALL LETTER PI.

If you are not on Mac OS X the best you can get in the current version is defining a code template with the character as template content and insert the character at the position of the cursor with auto completion on demand (Ctrl+Space). You define a code template from menu Options -> Preferences -> Editor -> Templates -> Code Templates, you press Ctrl+Space in the editor where you want to insert the character and you select the name of the code template in the auto completion window.
