Special Characters... Favorites

Hi,
In various programs (Safari, Mail, iWork etc) I sometimes need to use special characters and have saved a number of 'favorites'. Everytime I open "Special Characters" however, "Arrows" opens. Is there anyway of having Favorites open as default?
Thanks.

RH7: Corrupted Special Characters in TOC, Glossary, Favorites, etc.

When I generate a .chm from a Japanese, Polish, Russian or
Chinese RoboHelp 7 HTML Help, the special characters are corrupted
on the .chm file’s Contents, Search, Favorites, and Glossary
tabs as well in the HTML Help window's title bar.
For instance the Russian topic title
“Использование
приложения”
is shown approximately as
“Éñïîëücîâàíèå
ïdéëîæåíèèÿ”
on the TOC tab, making it useless for navigation purposes.
The fonts were initially also corrupted on the TOC inside the
RH7 project itself until I added charset=UTF-8 info in the
head/meta of the hhc files. However, there's still no joy when I
generate HTML Help output.
I found a reference to someone with a similar problem with a
RH7 Web help project where the solution was to add UTF-8 BOM to the
very beginning of the files. Have tried adding UTF-8 BOM to the hhc
or xpj files, using both Notepad and Dreamweaver, but with no
result. Someone also recommended the installation of the required
language packs – I tried, but again without improvement.
Have you experienced something similar and found a solution,
please share your knowledge with me.

I'm no expert in this area but I am beginning to acquire some
knowledge of the problems in this area.
First question is, I believe, are you using a unicode font?
It might be worth trying something such as Arial Unicode.
I believe the BOM stuff is relevant only to webhelp.
If changing the font does not work. Please contact me direct
via my website.

How do I add special characters from my favorites to text?

I have the new version of Numbers 3.5. In previous versions if I wanted to add foreign language symbols to the text, I only had to click my mouse from the "special characters" and it was added to the word I was typing. Today I am not able to use my Spanish vocabulary because I cannot add the necessary symbols. How do I use this feature in my document text?

Input from the Character Viewer normally requires double-clicking or drag/drop.
The special characters needed for spanish are also available by just holding down the key for the base letter. If you hold down the n key, you should get a popup menu where you can choose ñ.
There are also option key shortcuts for such letters. Option n then n will give you ñ.

Dir listing with umlauts / special characters

I've got a directory tree, where several files have umlauts or french accented characters in their names.
When I do 'ls' in such a directory, I can see the umlauts fine in Terminal, e.g.:
Die rote Wüste - Michelangelo Antonioni.avi
Nazarin - Luis Buñuel (span, eng sub, 1959).avi
I've got the environment variable LC_CTYPE=UTF-8.
However, when I do this: 'ls > /tmp/f.txt'
and then open the text file in TextEditor, I get this:
Die rote WuÃàste - Michelangelo Antonioni.avi
Nazarin - Luis BunÃÉuel (span, eng sub, 1959).avi
Does anyone have an idea, how to fix this?
(BTW: I've got a similar problem when I rsync these files ...)
Thanks a lot in advance.
Best regards,
Gabriel.

Well, I've been using /Applications/TextEdit for these files, because I was assuming that it handles UTF-8 automatically.
I opened the files now with Vim (my favorite editor), and, lo and behold, all special characters are fine!
I think, that solves my problem, because I can even copy-and-paste the text from Vim into my notes.
Best regards,
Gabriel.

Special characters pop-in

i have to do my homework in latin. i have the special characters pop-up available, but have to insert each character individually. is there any way i can assign these characters to my keyboard so i can just continue typing everything? it works in MS office, but i don't want to use that machine.

i apologize for my error. what i am trying to do is add the macrons for vowels into my normal typing. the special characters set you've shown does not include the latin characters that i have specified in the favorites section of the the pop-in. i can type as usual, but when i need a vowel with a macron (long mark over the letter) i have to use my mouse/track pad to select it and then hit insert to put it into my document. i'm trying to figure out how to assign a keyboard shortcut to do this. in MS word, i can by assigning "alt+ some other key" then when i am typing i just hit those two keys and it pops into my document. iWork makes me have to use 2 screens, and switch between typing and mousing, which is very time consuming. hope i have explained this well enough for you to see my problem. and thank you very much for attempting to help me.

How to type diactrics (special characters)

Short of installing a localized version of OS X, is there any way to type diacritics on a Mac? I'm mostly intersted in Polish special characters: ą ę ł ó ś ż ż.

In the "Input Menu" of "International" Systems Preference, turn on "Character Palette" and "Keyboard Viewer", and enable "Show input menu in menu bar" (it's at the bottom of the window). This will put a flag icon in the menu bar to select the Keyboard Viewer and/or the Character Palette.
For the simpler diacriticals ( ` ´ ¨ ˆ ˜ ) hold down Option, press the diacritical key, as shown in the Keyboard Viewer), release Option, then type the character.
` e u i n will give ` ´ ¨ ˆ ˜
For other diacriticals you will need the Character Palette. "Latin" under "European Scripts" should have what you need. You can use the "Add to Favorites" function (press the little gear at the lower-left) for the ones you use most, then select "Favorites".

Edit menu and special characters

With Maverick the iWorks apps were upgraded. I noticed that in iNumbers going to the edit menu and pulling up special characters draws a blank.
In iPages and iText all works as expected (I have not tried Keynote), the favorite characters window appears at the cursor position.
A general work around is to use the 'Show Character Viewer' from the top menu bar.
I wonder, is that a feature of iNumbers'09 version 2.3 (554), or is there a hanging cache file, which should be deleted.
Thanks
Gerfried

Thanks, I tried more and here is what I found.
opening a Numbers file, selecting a field without seeing an input cursor and selecting special characters from the edit menu or keyboard shortcut, nothing happens. The special character window does not show, but the system thinks the window is there (the keyboard viewer is set to 'Hide Character Viewer'). In this situation, even with an input field having a cursor the popup window of the favorite characters will not show when requested.
After clicking in the keyboard viewer 'Hide Character Viewer', it works fine: at the input cursor the popup window
comes up.
At two different Macs this behavior is reproducible.
The special characters pane is not showing up if in a selected field the cursor is not set! That confused me.
Only once and I could not reproduce it, the whole special character pane came up when clicking the edit -> menu -> special Characters.

XML Publisher report not printing excel output due to special characters

Hello,
I am trying to create a xml publisher report which should display the output in excel. But the program completes with a warning status and the output is displayed as XML instead of excel, with some errors "An invalid character was found in text content. Error processing resource " and i think these errors are due to the special characters(eg: city/province - A Coruña, Cáceres). If i give rownum < 10 in my query, where there are no such characters it works fine and i am getting an excel output.
Tried changing the XML encoding and it doesn't help (both mentioned below)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
Do anyone have a solution for this

Special characters into datagrid through the use of buttons

Hi!
I have a datagrid for word input, I'm trying to create a "special characters" panel, kind of like google's new "virtual keyboard" thing on google.com, so that the user can enter data into the datagrid cells using characters that aren't on their keyboards.
I manage to do this just fine, using the solution below. I know this is probably not the best/most effective way to do this, so any suggestions for making the code better will be appreciated. I only started using Flex a month ago.
grid.addEventListener(DataGridEvent.ITEM_EDIT_BEGIN, selectColumn)
function selectColumn(event:DataGridEvent):void
var selectedColumn:DataGridColumn = grid.columns[event.columnIndex];
selCol = selectedColumn.dataField;
//The function for adding a special character to the selected datagrid column by clicking a button:
//(inputWordArray is the dataprovider for the grid called "grid" )
protected function clickSomeButton(event:MouseEvent):void
var colIndex:int = new int;
if (selCol == "from"){
inputWordArray[grid.selectedIndex].from = inputWordArray[grid.selectedIndex].from + "æ";
colIndex = 0;
else if (selCol == "to"){
colIndex = 1;
inputWordArray[grid.selectedIndex].to = inputWordArray[grid.selectedIndex].to + "æ";
inputWordArray.refresh();
grid.dispatchEvent(new DataGridEvent(DataGridEvent.ITEM_EDIT_BEGINNING, false, false, colIndex, null, grid.selectedIndex));
The problem is that this only adds a letter at the end of the selected item's value, not at a specific position within the word specified by the position of the cursor. This is what I need to achieve. I have no idea even what to search for, if anyone could please give me a hint that'd be great.

You will probably need to capture the editor's selectionBeginIndex and
selectionEndIndex

First of all you have to supply a value you want to search for and this has to be the complete path to the value. You're saying you already tried that, but can you paste the code which you used for that? I don't see the path mentioned in the code you posted.
*FindNode*
Syntax
FindNode(Path)
Description
Use the FindNode method to return a reference to an XmlNode.
The path is specified as the list of tag names, to the node that you want to find, each separated by a slash (/).
Parameters
Path
Specify the tag names up to and including the name of the node that you want returned, starting with a slash and each separated by a slash (/). This is known as the XPath query language.>
Another option would be this snippet of code:
&InfoCFDiArray = GetElementsByTagName("ns4:InfoCFDi");
&InfoCFDiNode = &InfoCFDiArray [1];
&attValue = &InfoCFDiNode.GetAttributeValue("noCertificadoSAT")
Warning(&attValue);
It creates an array of XML Nodes which match the name "ns4:InfoCFDi". Since there's only one in the XML it's safe to assume it will be the one and only node in the array. I've assigned that node to the variable &InfoCFDiNode and use that to retrieve the attribute "noCertificadoSAT" value. The warning message should display the value supplied there.
Concering the special characters; you will have to change the encoding of the XML. Peoplecode sets this to UTF-8 by default, but doesn't include this in the header. There's a little hack for that somewhere on the web, I'll see if I can find it.

Need help in using replace function with special characters

I have a column in a table where the data can contain ascii code for special characters such as an apostrophe.
The data looks like this:
CREEK'S LANE
ie for a street named CREEK'S LANE.
I want to replace the ascii representation with the apostrophe and have the returned data show up as: CREEK's LANE
When I try the query below I get prompted for substitution variable value.
I don't seem to be able to find the right syntax to make this query work.
SELECT REPLACE (street_name, ''', '''')
FROM
streets WHERE street_id = 1
Does anybody know how to do this?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

GeorgeHa! The codes you specified rendered in the HTML, but showed properly when I listed your original posting above. I didn't understand what you meant initially because the 5-character string represenation got rendered as the quote that you said you weren't able to get - a display problem.
You're getting prompted for the substituon variable because of the ampersand; you appear to be doing this in SQL*PLUS. The first thing I would try is to SET DEFINE OFF when using the ampersands to see if that works. If That doesn't work check the docs to delmit the ampersand (I think its a backslash before it but can't remember offhand). Another, harder option might be to use the TRANSLATE function replacing the literal character instead of using REPLACE (though replacing a quote will be a little tricky). If you're on 10g also consider using the advanced quoting
Good luck!

Hi Experts,
Can we display special characters in ALV reports? Special characters such as tick mark.(Like in character map(Font Bookshelf Symbol 7) of windows ).
I tried with icons in ALV report, I was able to display tick icon in the ALV report, but when we export the report in to a excel, the icons comes in as Hexadecimal code.
Can any we display special characters like tick in ALV report or display the icons in excel aswell?
I will be gratefull for the <urgency reduced by moderator> response.
