Polish diacritics doesn't work again

Open cayco opened this issue 7 years ago • 5 comments

Polish diacritics doesn't work - again, as in #47

I am on 0.6.641 on #Chrome.

It works on http://appsweets.net/wasavi/keytest/ Log: [keydown] keyCode:79, which:79 ó base:"ó" code:243 alt nativeKeyCode:243 nativeCharCode:243 keyIdentifier:"undefined"

It does not work on https://wasavi.appsweets.net/

When I push the key (Alt+l for example) there is no output. It should be "ł".

Are there any chances to fix this?

Sorry the late reply. The keystroke test page moved to a new place: http://appsweets.net/wasavi/qeema/ What happens on this page?

Hi! Thanks for the reply. The output is:

----------
[code:  -8271] [char:                 ] [key: <A-O>           ] [modifier: A--] [isSpecial: false] [composition: no]
[code:  -8268] [char:                 ] [key: <A-L>           ] [modifier: A--] [isSpecial: false] [composition: no]
[code:  -8268] [char:                 ] [key: <A-L>           ] [modifier: A--] [isSpecial: false] [composition: no]
----------
[code:  -8282] [char:                 ] [key: <A-Z>           ] [modifier: A--] [isSpecial: false] [composition: no]
[code:  -8280] [char:                 ] [key: <A-X>           ] [modifier: A--] [isSpecial: false] [composition: no]
[code:  -8259] [char:                 ] [key: <A-C>           ] [modifier: A--] [isSpecial: false] [composition: no]
----------

and the output in the rich text input field looks correctly ("ółłżźć")

I want to confirm some points. Is the behavior in which "Alt + l" is converted to "ł" is correct? I added a Polish (programmer) keyboard to a Windows 10 machine and tried it, even in the native text area, "AltGr + l" was converted to a "ł", but the "left Alt + l" was not. polish-keyboard

This is different on Windows and on macOs. On Windows it is AltGr (right Alt): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AltGr_key#Polish and it is used to enter polish diacritics

On macOs you use left Alt for the same. Right Alt also works on my mac but I have no data on how widely it is used amongst other users.

I believe Alt and AltGr + one of "olaezxcn" should produce: ółąężźćń (don't forget about shift key ;)
