Question

Keyboard accents doesn't work in photoshop.

Hi guys, can you help me?


I have a PC with W11. After formatting it and installing Creative Cloud, I installed Ps, Ai, Id and Pr. All programs worked perfectly except Photoshop.

 

All his functions are working, but the keyboard, when I need to use accents, it doesn't work. It looks like it's not loaded. If I try to accent it, it doubles the accent. And it happens on the virtual keyboard too.

 

The way I found to work around this problem was, after starting PS, I need to come in keyboard format and switch to another language.

 

Does anyone know of a way to resolve this?

 

Again, Ai, Id and Pr don't have this problem and in no other program on my system.

    I see @jane-e , the Glyphs work anytime, I have no problems with them. But as you can see in img03, even renaming layers and layer groups the problem persists. When I change the keyboard the problem is "solved" in that case as well.

      Did you find the solution or the problem source by any chance?

      I didn't find the problem. After some time I formatted my PC.

      @Jean Dourado 

       

      Are you using:

      • Alt + Numeric keypad 0227 = ã
      • Windows Character Map
      • Photoshop Glyphs panel (Window menu or Type > Panels menu)

         

      If you use the Glyphs panel,  the glyph will show up in Recents at the top. Photoshop is primarily an image-editing application with some support for text. The panel menu in PS does not have a command to create your own Glyph set as you will find in InDesign, but it does at least have Recents.

        Yes, that's exactly the problem. The only one that has this defect is the PS. I tested versions 22, 23 and 24.
        Illustrator, Indesign and Premiere are still working normally.

        I don't know what PS could be loading. Maybe some "last available keyboard" setting or something?

          Hi Jean!

           

          Are the alt codes working in other programs? Is photoshop the only issue? I was able to test and accents are working in photoshop for me.
