How to fix problems with special (Polish language) character

[Marta25998822v5tj]

Hello,

I have been using Adobe Illustrator for some time and had no problems in writing in Polish language using Proxima Nova fonts (and others).

Today suddenly, at some point it stopped being possible:

when I try to type "ł" (so using alt+l) - the window with layer options is showing up.

when I try to type "ą" - program is highlighting all text.

Please note that it was not an issue before! Also, I still can use Polish characters in inDesign and other programs.

I tried restarting, re-installing, changed font setting to Polish, but nothing worked.

Could you please support me here? Any ideas how can I come back to previous settings?

Can you please try a different keyboard?

Do you have software installed that enhances keyboard input? Maybe an automation app?

Can you please shut down everything else? Browsers and a lot of other apps are known to interfere with modifier keys.

Hi Monika,

I was using Polish programmer keybord, but tried changing and nothing happened.

No software installed.

This problem is ONLY with, Polish shortcuts and characters work well in other programs. Tried shutting everything down / restarting / re-installing - nothing helped.
