Alt key code is giving me strange character (Yi Baiti?)

I used to type power of 2 by using Alt+178 (²), and a black circle with Alt+41396 (●)
which still works in my browser, but when I type these in my word, it gives me ꆴ.
which is some kind of Microsoft Yi Baiti font. and I could not change it! it always jump to Yi Baiti when I use Alt key code.
How do I correct this behavior? it is really annoying.

I was able to type ² by entering Alt+0178; • by entering Alt+0149.

  • How to disable Alt Key Codes in Skype

    There are alt key codes like alt+c for quick opening the contacts toolbar menu but I use Alt+Shift all the time to change the typing language and many times skype doesn't register this key combo and it opens its own menus.For example,yesterday I pressed alt+shift but it didn't register the shift key,it opened options menu whlile I was typing and changed the default language to chinese!(I'm not kidding).It took me an hour to find my way into the options menu and change it back to english.I need to disable the alt key codes in skype,please help.

    Thanks for the answer but this is to enable more hotkeys.What I'm looking for is to disable the default Alt Key Codes,because every time I press Alt the cursor goes to the navigation menu on top.So when I press Alt+Shift to change the typing language,if I press it fast and the Shift key doesn't register then I end up to the navigation bar menus.

  • Using the Alt key and numeric code from Character Map to insert special characters in Office 2010 programs

    I am used to using the ALT key and specific numbers for characters from the Character Map to place characters in Office programs like Outlook, Word, Excel. I have a new Lenovo T530 Laptop running the Windows 7 Professional Operating System. I have MS Office
    2010 Home and Business. In previous versions of Office, this feature worked first time, every time. On this machine, it is a 'no go' situation. Lenovo tech support says it is a Microsoft issue and Microsoft says it is a Lenovo issue. Either way, I'm having
    difficulty resolving the issue and getting this wonderful featrure working for me. Any suggestions and guidance would really be appreciated. Thank you. 

    Hi,
    Haven't been verified this myself, but since this feature require to use the numeric keypad to input the value, I suspect the cause of the issue is the laptop keyboard.
    To workaround this issue, try enable the numeric keypad from your laptop keyboard, normally, we can enable it by press
    Fn + Num Lock.
    After that, try insert characters again.

  • Not Getting Key Code for ALT key

    Hi,
    I am having some trouble in getting key code for alt key. Can Any one help in it.
    I am sharing for source code the way I am trying to do it.
    import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
    stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, function(e:KeyboardEvent){trace("Key== "+e.keyCode); txt.text=""+e.keyCode;});

    Hi Amanpreet,
    The code i posted was a working example to detect Alt + click. You can try pasting it in the Actions panel of a blank AS3 file, Test Movie, press Alt and Click on the blank area of Stage and see that the trace statement appears in Output panel.
    Flash does not return the keycode of Alt key directly but lets you detect if Alt was pressed or not using 'event.altKey'. This boolean property is available for both Keyboard and Mouse events.
    You can try another sample: (This will only work when you Test Movie on Browser)
    //Place a dynamic textbox named 'txtStatus' on stage to display the text.
    stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, keyHandler);
    function keyHandler(e:KeyboardEvent) {
           txtStatus.text = e.keyCode.toString(); 
           if(e.altKey)
                txtStatus.text = 'alt pressed';
    When you Test Movie in browser, you'll need to click on the Stage area once to set it in focus. Also make sure to embed your fonts or set 'use device fonts' Anti-alias setting to display the text correctly.

  • Enabling Windows-style Alt-key navigation (Alt hit the underlined character

    Is there a way to enable in 10.6/Snow Leopard (or maybe via 3rd party app) what used to be in Windows XP, where you can navigate menus in Finder and applications using Alt key. There is a letter of each menu choice underlined (which shows all the time or just went Alt key is pressed)? Hard to navigate with so much mouse movement. Mostly interested in feature in Office 2008 apps since that is where spend a lot of time.

    Hi Kurt,
    That's true for many shortcuts, and the basic system shortcuts are quite intuitive, and easy to remember. But for some (some of the ones I use the most), there is no simple shortcut. E.g. pressing "alt -> i -> m" (I think it is) in office for windows will open a recently used symbols where you can use the arrows and enter to quickly insert. It takes no more than a second, two at the very most, if you know where you symbol is located in the matrix of 4x5 recent symbols. Otherwise, you can map special characters to key-combos. (e.g. I have alt+a making a Greek alpha, one I need frequently, and have not found a way to do quickly in word for Mac).
    The fastest way I've found to insert my Greek alpha in word for mac (without installing extra software like ukelele) is to press "ctrl + F2", then "i", then enter, then "S" twice, then "enter" twice. And then you still need to use the mouse to scroll down and find your character (alpha).
    If you know of a quicker way, I'd be thrilled to learn about it? I know it's not hours a day we're talking, it still just feels annoying when you have to do something to much slower than you are used to.
    Cheers,
    W
    Btw, there are also a lot of programs (especially more specialized ones), where there are no shortcuts, only the link in the menus. In e.g. ImageJ, it has saved me some time being able to go to the menu with ctrl+F2 whenever I needed to copy to system (not just copy), find edges or open histogram.

  • ALT KEY gets stuck!

    ive been searching the net and forums for the solution of this problem and figured out that there are dozen of blackberry curve users having this same problems. but never did i see anyone giving the right solution. is this really a common problem for blackberry 8520? they dont even know how to solve this problem yet WHAT's happening!? removing the battery for 5min and putting it back again DOESNT WORK! upgrading the OS DOESNT WORK! im really getting annoyed. sorry can anyone help? im desperate. thanks

    Is the problem one of the ALT key getting stuck? Stuck how?
    Does it get stuck as in stuck down like it sticks depressed?
    Or does it remain bouncy ok, but the NUM icon remains on screen?
    If you press the lower left SHIFT key, does this remove the NUM icon?

  • Boot Camp partition not showing in startup disk or when holding alt key

    I've read countless discussions about similar questions to this one, however, I still haven't been able to find any solution.
    I have an old 2006 MacBook that has just been fully updated and reformatted. I'm running OSX 10.7.5 and Boot Camp 4.
    I went through the Boot Camp installation from an Windows ISO image in my usb drive, where it succesfully downloaded all files needed, and prompted me to make the partition, after which it restarted and was supposed to take me to the installation manager in the Windows partition. I first got the "No bootable driver" error, to which I read I was supposed to restart the computer, hold the alt key, and choose the boot camp partition. However, it does not show up. I only get Mac and Recover drivers.
    I went into the Mac's startup disk, and only the Mac driver is showing, no Boot Camp driver, however, when I go into Disk Utilities, I can see that the BootCamp driver there.
    I read somewhere that I should zap pram and reset SMC, which I did with their instructions. It didn't change anything, I still only get the Mac driver and Recovery when hitting the alt key.
    Does it have something to do with my MacBook being older? That's the only reason I can think that would not allow me to do this.
    Let me know what other info I can give you so that you can please help me!! Thanks in advance!

    In last resort I solved my missing BOOTCAMP partition problem using a program called: iPartition from coriolis systems located in the United Kingdom http://www.coriolis-systems.com/iPartition.php it took me a coupleof days to figure out the credit card system they have Hint: use your 9 digit zip code to find your credit card address and call your bank if you have an overseas hold on the card!!!! The program found my missing BOOTCAMP partition and restored it. It did take a couple of e-mails to learn to use their program. Let me know how you turn out!

  • Invalid key code and multiple installs

    OK, so I got a new iMac and tried to install vista on it like I had on my old iMac (2006 Model). However, when I finished the installation it started a new installation and it ended up installing vista twice. It would have done and third install, but I held down the option key during install and manually selected the windows partition instead of the Windows install CD. However, not all of the Windows features were installed like Aero so I deleted the windows partition. My iChat buddies list got deleted so I had to delete my iChat preferences (don't know if this will help).
    Anyway I tried to re-install Vista this morning and it said my key code was invalid, although it worked yesterday. What is the problem? This is the second invalid key code problem I've had on this Mac (the first was with Logic).
    Oh also, there seems to be some remnants of Vista on the computer even after I deleted the partition because unless I held down option/alt during boot up it would try to run windows and would say no boot disc.
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Can anybody help with this?
    I tried reinstalling it and it slowed down my boot up speed because it didn't install right and I had to delete the partition once again.
    The keycode issue has been resolved though for some reason...

  • Why does the ALT key disable mouse clicks on some machines?

    I have a drawing program, the main Window of which extends JFrame and contains a Canvas, which extends JPanel. The Canvas has a MouseAdapter, KeyAdapter and JMenuBar. It also has a Tools palette, which extends JDialog and has Buttons, which extend JToggleButtons.
    One button is called Zoom. After pressing this button, you can Zoom In and Zoom Out by clicking the mouse on a point of the illustration. It differs from pressing Ctrl Plus and Ctrl Minus, because the point where you click is kept in place, and only all the other points move.
    Zooming In is done by clicking the mouse and Zooming Out is done by pressing the ALT key and clicking the mouse. The Zooming In works on all computers, but for some strange reason, the Zooming Out doesn't work on all computers. The computer where it doesn't work, after pressing the ALT key and clicking the mouse, it does not recognize the mouse click, and never reaches the mousePressed method in my debugger.
    The computer where it doesn't work has the Windows XP Professional operating system. But some computers where it does work have the same operating system. The problem also does not depend on the keyboard or mouse, because I tried a different keyboard and mouse, and it still didn't work.
    I wonder if the reason why it doesn't work on some computers has to do with that the ALT key is also used differently (which might depend on the operating system)? Pressing the ALT key and clicking the mouse Zooms In a picture by keeping the point in place and only moving all the other points
    I do not want to use a different key, since one release of my program is a plugin for Photoshop, and Photoshop also uses the ALT key to achieve the same thing.
    Thanks for checking on this! I will appreciate your help!

    Ok, I did apply KeyBindings. Since the AnanyaCurves class extends JFrame, I couldn't apply KeyBindings there, but I could apply KeyBindings to my CurveCanvas class, which extends JPanel, which extends JComponent. However I still have my first two problems:
    1) After pressing the ALT key, clicking the mouse doesn't get recognized. You never reach the mousePressed method, where it's supposed to exit the program.
    2) After opening a menu, such as the Nothing menu by pressing ALT and N, pressing a key which is not an accelerator key of a menu doesn't get recognized, such as pressing the E key. You never reach the actionPerformed method of the exitF action, where it's supposed to exit the program.

  • Invalid Key Code when trying to install Crystal Reports XI

    Hi, I was referred to your web site by SAP phone support.
    I am trying to install Crystal Reports Developer XI on a Windows Server 2003 machine, and the key code I retrieved from the service.sap.com site is not being accepted by the installation program. It gives me an error message saying that the key code is invalid or expired.
    What can I do? I tried posting a message to XX-SER-LIKEY-BOF as instructed on service.sap.com but they only answered by giving me the same non-working key code again.
    I tried calling the phone support site, and they instructed me to go to sdn.sap.com. I guess this forum is what they meant.

    I would suggest calling the Customer Service department; you can get the info from the following link:
    http://www.businessobjects.com/company/contact_us/
    Call either the Canadian or USA number. If they can't help you directly, they should be able to tell you who you need to contact to resolve your issue.
    Hope this helps!!

  • My ALT-key is acting like a back button -- only in Firefox. What gives?

    Whenever I hit the ALT-key, Firefox backs up to the previous webpage as if I hit the back button. This only happens when the mouse pointer is over the web page window. If I move the pointer up to the tool bar, for instance, this issue no longer occurs. Really strange.
    I also can't open drop down menus -- as soon as I click on them, they close back up. I don't have this problem in Google Chrome or Internet Explorer.

    You may have a problem with a sticky cursor Left key that Firefox thinks is pressed (Alt = Left is to go back in the tab history).
    Did you try to close and restart Firefox or reboot the computer to see if that helps?

  • Alt key shortcut woes in InDesign CS6

    Greetings,
    Our company recently switched from Macs to PCs for design work. Now all of the keyboard shortcuts that had been assigned on the Mac and started with the Option key (e.g., Opt + numeric keypad 1) have switched to the Alt key on the PC (e.g., Alt + numeric keypad 1) and no longer work. All of the shortcuts that use Alt in combination with the Control or Shift keys along with a number from the numeric keypad work as expected. The cause apparently is tied to the Windows OS, which uses the Alt key to shift focus to application menus.
    My question is, has anyone found a straight-forward solution or workaround to this issue? Our designers count on those keyboard shortcuts to apply Paragraph, Character and Object styles. Having to revert to selecting from a palette rather than invoking the keyboard shortcut is truly costly in terms of time--a problem exacerbated by tight production deadlines. We have used all of the shortcut options that involve the shift and control keys, so switching the Alt key shortcuts isn't a legitimate option. We've look at using something like Auto Hotkey but have not successfully implemented that, and would prefer not to have to rely on that as a solution in the first place.
    Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Bob and Peter, thanks for your posts. Bob, I had previously come across the article by Sandee Cohen that you referenced. The technique there seems to provide a method to remap InDesign's keyboard shortcuts to allow use of the Alt key for events within ID, but I haven't been able to apply this strategy to custom shortcuts applied to paragraph, character and object styles. And the designer who developed our shortcuts very systematically used all of the available combinations (shift, option/alt, control, alone or in combos, and 0 through 9 on the numeric keypad). They had a great system on the Mac that unfortunately has now fallen apart on the PC.
    I'll keep digging and definitely welcome more advice. Thanks again!

  • Text Ring misbehavior with ALT key - Win 7

    This may not be a LabVIEW problem, but maybe somebody knows a workaround.
    LV 2010.0
    I have a text ring, populated with only one item.
    I intercept the MOUSE DOWN? event on this control.
    Upon that event, I look at the MODIFIER keys (Shift, Ctrl, Alt) and populate the control's menu (STRINGS & VALUES) according to which key(if any) is pressed.
    (The point is to offer channels in alphabetical order, or in order of units, or in order of hardware type, etc...)
    After populating the menu, the menu pops up and the user sees the list rearranged in whichever fashion.
    The user chooses one, and the VALUE CHANGED event triggers removal of the full menu and insertion of the single chosen item.
    This worked fine..... until I moved to Win 7.
    Now, when I try the ALT option - the menu just flashes and then disappears.  The first time you ALT-click, it appears for maybe 0.3-0.5 second and then drops.  Subsequent times it just draws the frame and then drops - it's just a blip - maybe 0.1 second.
    Clicking on it without ALT works normally, and then the next ALT click will restore the long (0.3-0.5 sec) behavior.
    If you release the ALT key during that 0.3-0.5 seconds, the menu sticks and works OK, but that's not something people are expecting to do.
    It's not my code at fault: try this yourself:
    Place a TEXT ring or a MENU ring on a new panel.
    Enter "A", "B", "C" as your items.
    without even running the VI, Alt - click on the thing.
    In Win 7, it flashes the menu, then takes it away.
    I've looked for some Easy Access feature that was turned on by mistake - Mouse Keys, Sticky Keys, Toggle Keys, Filter Keys, they're all OFF.
    Is there a "don't be stupid" preference somewhere that I could turn on? Or do I have to switch to another key?
    (I'm using ALt, Ctrl, Shift - maybe I could use the Win Key...)

    Attached is a VI which shows the SHIFT-ALT-CTRL states when the ring is clicked on.
    Here is a JING which shows the behavior: http://www.screencast.com/t/2Xh5loKW
    The JING doesn't capture every flash, as the flash is sometimes quick.  But it shows some of them. It happens every time.

  • Lost 'mask' (using alt key) in exposure and sharpening?

    The black or white 'mask' by using the alt key in exposure adjustments AND the 'mask' while adjusting amount, detail and unsharp mask in sharpening is missing for me.  The only difference I can think of is that LR  is now on a new notebook (ASUS) and am now working with Windows 7 64-bit.  Is there something I can do to re-gain those helpful masks?  Any idea what happened?  I'm in the middle of nowhere and don't have a lot of wireless time to research . . . Any help or suggestion will be appreciated. Joia

    Well guys, everything checks out good - specs are fine and both alt keys work.  The touchpad is, however, a big problem and seems to be the culprit.  It switches between being hypersensitive (giving me only a quick flash of the mask) or unresponsive (the sliders do not move at all).
    We plugged in a mouse and I now have control of both the masks and sliders.
