    Dropping a special character into text


    A few years ago I used to have a facility, when typing a document, to drag a special character, eg a mathematical symbol, from a small font app displayed at the side of my text, and drop it into the body of my document. I have looked everywhere for this little app which, incidentally was FREE. Anybody know what happened to this facility?

    :)

    Special characters

    Maybe Character encoding setting in "Text message settings" has something to do with decrease count. I personally have it in "Full support" and noticed that only certain special characters only cause decrease of two.

    Special characters

    Hello



    First, I wonder when the new firmware 200.211.18 will be available for Croatian market, and second there is a problem with my current firmware 100.07.76



    When I start to write a text message and press one of the croatian special characters for the first time remaining available characters for a text message decrease from 160 to 69 and after that they decrease normally one by one.



    Is this problem addressed in 110.07.127 or should I wait for 200.211.18 to be available?

    Special Characters in phone numbers - 6085

    I have looked through the entire User's Guide for my 6085 and cannot find how to store special characters, such as pause, in the telephone number. Lots of info about special characters for texting but not phone number. Is this feature not available?
