Hi,
I noticed that Dia doesn't support french fonts, thus, I can't type
accents such as à, û, etc.
Is there any way to bypass this problem?
Thanks
Hi Mahdi,
I am brazilian, and I can type à, û and etc perfectly in dia. Isn't it
your X11 configuration or LC_ALL environment? Is it dia specific or any
X or GTK application has the same problem?
Anyway, you can get around it with cut and paste. Open gucharmap, select
the characters you want, copy it and past in dia (edit->past _text_).
Of course, if you have everything correctly configured, you can only
input the `+a combo and it should work.
