Missing "long-press" menu for further accents #3

Closed ranuss closed 3 years ago

ranuss commented 3 years ago

I am missing the menu for further accents (example: õ, ø, œ usw.) when i do a long press on a key. Is there a chance to get this back?

I am not sure. Maybe the layout needs to regenerated to include these features. Maybe in the next days I will have a look into it.

Is there any update on this?

Hi, sorry for not getting back earlier. The keyboard layout bundle is not controlling the long press context menu.

You can enable it with defaults write -g ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool true

Long press menu is working fine on my mac using this custom US German keyboard layout

Best, Patrick
