Description: Under Linux/KDE Plasma, the Greek keyboard laytout provides the ability to enter Greek polytonic characters, using special dead keys. E.g., to enter ἔ (epsilon-psile-oxeia), one can type "right alt-shift-; ; e" (psile, oxeia, epsilon) or "; right alt-shift ; e" (oxeia, psile, epsilon). Writer, however, only recognizes the latter combination. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install the "Greek" keyboard layout (not "Greek (polytonic)") under KDE Plasma. 2.Switch to it. 3.Type right alt-shift-; ; e in Writer. Actual Results: The character ε appears. Expected Results: The character ἔ should appear. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Version: 7.4.2.3 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 40(Build:3) CPU threads: 2; OS: Linux 6.0; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb) Locale: el-GR (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded The problem does not appear in calc. If I paste the character from another application, it appears correctly, so this is not a font problem. I believe that this is a relatively recent regression, as I edited a polytonic Greek text about a year ago, and didn't notice any problems. The sequence oxeia-psile is very unnatural to me, so I am sure I would have noticed if only that one worked.
Kriton, it seems that your report is difficult to confirm. So could you please retest with LO 7.5.3 or with actual master? thank you => NEEDINFO
Works fine under Version: 7.5.3.1 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 50(Build:1) CPU threads: 2; OS: Linux 6.3; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb) Locale: el-GR (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded so I guess the problem fixed itself!
