Question

Suggestion: Can we have a tool that that allows us to post special characters in posts ONLY like Spanish, we need a tool that allows us to post special characters. We can put it next to the "equation, drawing, attach file tools". I would also like to suggestion not posting this tool in chats or pm because users might take advantage.

Answer 1

So a tool for accent marks?

Answer 2

yes that is correct ^_^ Im suggestion this because every time a special character is posted a huge amount of diamonds and question marks come up. Plus I think it would be more comfortable for users, instead of copying and pasting these accent marks from the web.

Answer 3

well....there are keyboard tricks for that

Answer 4

Yes I know but Im sure many users dont know about these tricks.

Answer 8

@kidrah69 yes im aware but have you tries posting it here? im sure the diamonds and question marks will show

Answer 9

Im trying to post the http://prntscr.com/6n3mri sign and IT just opens a new window

Answer 10

I think they should..

Answer 11

same thing happened to me

Answer 12

Ya ._. plus I think if we get this tool we can probably open up a new future for OS for new subjects like new languages like French, we can keep the accent marks organized like the drop box to find subjects, we just look for the language and it will show all the accent marks the language uses.

Answer 15

http://openstudy.com/study#/updates/551820c9e4b05708382f63d8 <---i would like to know how they did it

Answer 16

YA it does this http://prntscr.com/6n3ox6 @kidrah69 when you refresh it shows but who has time to refresh especially if OS is on one of those lag days

Answer 17

or switch questions...

Answer 18

u dont have to refresh

Answer 19

true... but isn't it just better for the character to show? than every time someone posts something the diamonds/question marks show

Answer 20

They need the whle character thing fixed, but I bet you could do a number of the basic ones with \(\LaTeX\).

Answer 21

well instead implementing something little y cant you just switch questions? it doesnt really make a diffrence.... ù à

Answer 22

Also why isn't the word for gardening tool filtered, means the same thing as a female dog doesn't it? http://prntscr.com/6n3q1v

Answer 23

Because people use that word ï need a gardening hoe to go fix up the soil <---can be used in subjects like english or a math word problem

Answer 24

._. no one really uses it... only street people us it just to insult someone calling them a prostitute.

Answer 25

ive seen word problems with that its just like filtering John Hanwingspan

Answer 26

Come on ._. who's gonna say "Hey son give me the HOE"

Answer 27

Yeah a gardening hoe if you abuse the word thats when you get in trouble

Answer 28

*O* @Nnesha was here... please share your words of wisdom with us.

Answer 29

Lets just stick to the special character tool for now.

Answer 36

Great now we can put those links in a tool mate ^_^

Answer 37

\(\unicode{x00FF}\)

Answer 38

just like the Equation it has a link ._.

Answer 39

you can copy and paste these

Answer 40

So does the drawing tool

Answer 41

Just type them in. It is jsut \(\LaTeX\). Until they get language support working again, that is the best you can do. And I hope they get language support working... cause without it Japanese does not work.

Answer 42

@kidrah69 Im not gonna come back and forth to this post to get the accent marks Its better in a tool.

Answer 43

Well then i guess you have to learn it :P

Answer 44

So save them in a text file.

Answer 45

You can't memorize all of those numbers .-.

Answer 46

^

Answer 47

do what @e.mccormick said :P

Answer 48

thats possible isnt it?

Answer 49

pfft no one has learned the equation links... and its a tool

Answer 50

yea so do what e.mcc said...

Answer 51

Why can it be a tool?

Answer 52

Well im sure they have other things to do right now like fix bugs so they have alot maybe in the future...

Answer 53

^^^^^

Answer 54

its a suggestion ._. thats what suggestions are for, but i really dont see why it should be rejected.

Answer 55

i never said it was rejected im not a developer i am saying they have alot going on atm so maybe in the future :)

Answer 56

Eric can Preetha see it or @Abhisar ? ^_^

Answer 57

I am saying they will focus on bug fixes, like getting spcial characters working, and not on more tools.

Answer 58

So it's possible that the tool will exist in the future?

Answer 59

@e.mccormick in that doc, all the `\` have become *in attachement*

Answer 60

But when you copy that symbol back onto OS it becomes a `\` interesting .-.

Answer 61

That can be due to keyboard layout. You can do a bulk replace if you need to.
