I can't comment on the "č" key after the update

[Monika Gause]

I can't comment on the "č" key. Maybe make a bug report? Or first try and reset the preferences?

But the automatic update can be turned off in the Creative Cloud app in the preferences.

after today's automatic and unsolicited update of Adobe Illustrator, the Czech key "č" does not work for me. I can't work. What with this??? ☹☹☹

[jakubF]

After today's update to version 26.0 I have the same problem with key "č". Others work without a problem.

After updating to 26.0, I have the same problem with typing the letter "no" in the Mac version.

Hi there,

Sorry to hear about this trouble. We need you help investigating this issue further. I would reuqest if you could share the following details:

• Are you using any language specific keyboard?
• Version and language of Operating system.
• What happens when you press the key?
• Is this key working with other applications?

Regards,

Srishti

Are you using any language specific keyboard?

I use the keyboard in the Czech / English version and switch as needed.

Version and language of Operating system.

Operating system Windows 10 Home, version 21H1, language Czech.

What happens when you press the key?

Nothing will happen. When I switch the keyboard to the English version, it works and it writes the number 4 correctly. But when I switch the keyboard to the Czech version again, nothing when I press it. Other keys/characters work normally. I tried to insert the 'č' character from the character or glyph map, and this also works fine and the character inserts it. But nothing happens from the keyboard.

The 'Č' key even works like a capital letter over a caps lock.

Is this key working with other applications?

Yes key works 'č' works normally in other applications like InDesign, Photoshop, Notes, Word, Chrome, etc.

Note: I uninstalled the current version of Illustrator 26.0 and installed the previous version 25.4.1. and again everything works incl. the 'č' keys on the Czech keyboard.

In the new update, on Croatian keyboard also the "č" does not work, but also "đ" and "Đ"

I'm trying to type several special characters in Slovak, namely Č and Ď (both lowercase and uppercase), but Illustrator 2022 won't add them in type field. I can add them manually from Glyphs panel. I tried several fonts and it's not a font issue. I can even type the characters in any field within Illustrator, but not on canvas. Anyone stumbled across similar issue?

Running Windows 11, i7, 16GB RAM, etc.

Hi all, I tested the pre-release version 26.0.1 and the 'č' character works on the Czech keyboard again without any problems.

[Aurel5C54]

Just so you know, 26.0.2 update fixed Č and č key, but Đ and đ are still not working using Croatian keyboard!

[drejck]
