Special characters on Mac

[seranor]

Hello everyone,

I can't manage to type the ˜sign in order to type ñ. I understand I have to press Shift + the key under Backspace to the left, but it doesn't do anything. How does one type ñ? I have a Mac, maybe that has something to do with it?

Thank you

The "tilde above" is a dead key. If the Mac works like other systems,
to enter an ñ, you first type Shift + the key under backspace (which
does not create any output), then the "n" key.

I understand how a dead key works, that's how I type ñ currently, pressing the dead key and later pressing n. I use the Dvorak international layout, but if I used the English QWERTY it would be the same.

I think maybe the problem is that the Mod keys don't work on Mac. I checked and saw that to install the Neo keyboard it tells you that to activate the Mod keys you have to install the program Karabiner elements, which I wouldn't do. Maybe the same happens with ADNW.

When I type Mod3, which is Caps Lock, the letter keys all change to Capital letter but they change the letter, like, this is the layout that I get:

XVÜCWKHGFQ?´

HIEAOSTRTDẞ

As you can see on the homerow I the letter T appears twice.

Maybe someone else here uses ADNW on Mac?

Thank you

Jetzt habe ich Karabiner's instaliert und also kann ich Mod3 benützen (also habe ich nicht mehr die Tastaturbelegung die ich früher hatte:

XVÜCWKHGFQ?´

HIEAOSTRTDẞ

XÖÄPQBM;:J

wenn ich Caps lock tippe).

Aber wenn ich Shift + den Schlüssel unter Rücktaste tippe, "¸" wie toter Schlüssel erscheint. Und wenn ich später "n" tippe, "ţ" erscheint (keine ņ). Aber wenn ich Shift + the key under Backspace tipee, und später t tippe, dann "ņ" erscheint. Etwas Seltsames ist los.

Ich möchte "ñ" tippen.

(Shift + the key under Backspace bedautet Shift + den Schlüssel unter Rücktaste)
