ALT + numeric code disabled?Submitted by teknocide on October 16, 2007 - 10:32am
Hiya! I'm wondering if you for some reason have disabled the ability to insert unicode characters like å ä ö by holding ALT and entering a code on the numerical keyboard (134, 132 and 148 respectively) or if this is a limitation of the underlying API. I would really appreciate it if this functionality was added, although I know I'm not one to make requests or demands of any kind. ( categories: )

Should be the same
Check with the Pidgin developers.

Most Likely a GTK+ Issue
The same issue happens with GIMP, which shares the GTK+ runtime with GAIM/Pidgin.
The only workaround I've found is to pull up the character map ( Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Character Map). Then find the character you want & do a copy-n-paste job into Pidgin (or GIMP).
It's annoying/frustrating if you have to do multiple non-standard characters, but it's better than nothing.
