Hi

I live in Norway where we use the special letters æøå. Before i installed SKP I was able to long press a to get å or æ. O to get ø. I am not able to do that now. Wich is frustrating. Is there support for this in SKP? What to do?

Hi
there is a norwegian layout in SKP!! You don't even need to long press for that, there are additional keys

(just play with the "language key" option)

Sorry, I was meaning the Hardware keyboard... I use that all the time. Is it a solution to that?

aaa ok
It was already asked somewhere else (for german I think), and indeed that's not possible at the moment. But you can now use the bug tracker to ask for it ;)

OK. Thanx. I will. SKP is in other ways VERY good!

You mean with the hardware keyboard? There is no solution at the moment, some development is required to make this work for non-english keyboards

Ok, so that's not the problem described in this post...
Do you use the "IT" layout? Which version of the keyboard do you have? (check in "About..." in the settings). There should be no problem, all the accents are there on the italian keyboard

ops sorry :P i use the 2.3.2 with IT language and dictionary... Also other people have the same problem, we can't choose letter like éè when we push button 3 (or other like òàìù) on T9 layout.
