Actual Results: Could not achieve the Euro sign Expected Results: Should be able to achieve the Euro sign Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: [Information automatically included from LibreOffice] Locale: en-US Module: TextDocument [Information guessed from browser] OS: Windows (All) OS is 64bit: no User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/61.0.3163.100 Safari/537.36 OPR/48.0.2685.52
You don't identify the locale or the keyboard in use, but <LeftAlt>+E is not a "normal" mapped key for the € (20ac) Euro currency glyph Some "deadkey" helper program in use? <AltGr>+E is used, so <ctrl>+<r-alt>+E might be at issue. Regardless, multiple ways to enter that do work Windows builds regardless of keyboard. 1. via numpad ANSI code entry, <alt>+0128 2. <LeftAlt>+X toggle conversion of "20ac" (or of "U+20ac") 3. Special character dialog -> Currency Symbols subset (or search for hex 20ac, decimal 8364) and pick-insert to document
