Type accented letters in Spanish words
Posted: Wed Jul 27, 2016 1:18 pm
At the moment I often need to type Spanish words in amongst English text. If I have to type a word with an accent (e.g. autobús) I have to go to Insert, Special Character and find the character, click on it, then close the menu option and carry on with the rest of the word, which takes ages. Normally elsewhere in OSX if you hold down a key it displays all the alternative characters under that key and you can pick one quite quickly, but in Open Office holding down the key simply repeats it (e.g. autobuuuuuuuuuuu).
Is there a way of disabling key repeat in Open Office and reverting to the standard OSX function? Or is there another quick way to type special characters within Open Office?
