I'm a little lost with this thread and I'm sorry I missed the beginning. Did it start with a particular branch of LO Writer ?

I had often wondered how to apply a unicode character using the form U+266f and have resorted on the few occasions when I needed one, to inserting Special Characters. With LO Writer 4.2.8.2 in UbuntuStudio, Alt+x doesn't toggle unicode. In fact the keyboard shortcut lists show that practically nothing is defined with the use of the Alt key (only Alt+backspace = undo, Alt+shift+F8 = Block Area). Also Ctrl+Shift+u does nothing and is undefined in the keyboard shortcuts.
LibreOffice 4.2.8 went EOL December 2014 -- a lot has happened with the 4.3, 4.4, 5.0, 5.1 and pending 5.2 releases. More current releases are available from Ubuntu PPA or LibreOffice.org as DEB packages. tdf#73691 <https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73691> -- add unicode conversion shortcut like word (alt+x) has been in the source since August 2015, and is included in 5.1 release onward. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/How-to-NOT-turn-c-into-a-symbol-tp4187226p4187400.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscribe@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
