Java Forum / GUI / October 2005Can not enter ^
Hello, I've a AFAIK Java application (Maple 10) on a Linux 2.6 box with locale setting de_DE.UTF-8. Everything works fine, I can enter the German umlauts (üöä) but not the sign ^ (for calculating the power of number, like 2^4 = 16). Also with a unset LANG variable it does not work. Anyone has a idea to make it work? Thanks >Anyone has a idea to make it work? Some keyboard conventions are you must hit some other key first or hit such a key twice. Is there a dead key on your keyboard? Try dead ^.

Is there a dead key on your keyboard? No hitting twice works, neither I know to hit a key before. It works in console, on KDE applications, but not on Java Applet Windows or applications. > Try dead ^. What do you mean with that? Thx, Florian >> Try dead ^. > >What do you mean with that? On a French keyboard you hit ^ and nothing happens. Then you hit e. At that point ê appears. ^ is called a dead key since nothing happens when you hit it. If you hit it twice you see ^. I thought there might be something similar in German. Some keyboards have an AltGr key. (Right alt) Try tapping that, or holding it down and tapping other keys.

No, not in this application. > I thought there might be something similar in German. > > Some keyboards have an AltGr key. (Right alt) Try tapping that, or > holding it down and tapping other keys.
