Accent symbol - common in russian language symbol to differ words with the same writings, but different pronouciation.
LO reads accent symbol repfectly, if you type it in MS Word. By typing in LO is problematic.
1. Windows only method ALT+deicaml offset. ALT+0769 doesnt type anything
2. Inserting symbol via GUI. I choose U+301 and instead of symbol with upper coma I see ligature with two upper comas.
3. I see no way to disable ligatures. How to disable autoligature insert?

Also if you open this odt in MS Word - everything will look fine.

There is no option to disable ligatures right now, but you can workaround that by inserting a U+200C (zero-width non-joiner) character between the pair of characters you don’t want to be ligated.
