  1. Flickering Bar with Accented Letters


    Hi everyone,I'm experiencing a strange issue on my Windows 11 Pro laptop. Since yesterday, a flickering status bar with accented letters, such as "ú," "ù," and "ü," has been appearing at the top of the screen while I type. The bar shows a list of letters with different accents and symbols screenshot attached.This issue occurs intermittently and seems to interfere with my typing experience. I have already tried restarting my laptop, but the problem persists. I use multiple language inputs, but my primary layout is English US. No major system changes or software installations have occurred r

    :)

  3. When you plan to update the touch keyboard to type greek accented letters?

    Hi George,

    This issue that started after the last Windows 10 update might be caused by software incompatibility. For us to better assist you, we would like to ask the following:

    • How are you accessing the Greek accented letters on touch keyboard before?
    • Are there any error messages displayed when trying to access the Greek accented letters?
    • If possible, can you give us an example screenshot of the Greek accented letters?

    Meanwhile, we need to make sure that the Greek keyboard is added on the language settings. To check if the Greek keyboard is added, follow these steps:

    • Click the Start button and select the Settings
      icon.
    • Choose Time & Language from the list.
    • Select Region & language in the left pane of the window.
    • Under Languages, make sure that the Greek keyboard is added.

    We're looking forward to your reply.

    Flickering Bar with Accented Letters

    Touch keyboard press and hold for accented letters - missing accents

    In Windows 10 with a English UK locale selected (although the issue applies it to various other layouts) I select the show touch keyboard button from context-clicking on the task bar. When the touch keyboard shows I can enter accented letters by pressing
    and hold a key. For example press and hold n to get the ability to enter ñ.

    However, press and hold s gives š but no ŝ (which is a shame - I was rather hoping for ŝ). The c key has the inverse problem - there is ĉ, but č is missing. And u misses ŭ and other accents. And so forth - the problem is the choice of accented letters.
    Of course not all of Unicode and all languages can be supported by the generic press and hold popups, but trying to be objective, I'd suggest (based on the CEN Workshop Agreement CWA 13873:2000) the press and holds give access to the following letters: ß áâãäåæçèéêëìíîïðñòóôõöøùúûüýþÿāăąćĉċčďđēėęěĝğġģĥħĩīįıijĵķĸĺļľŀłńņňʼnŋōőœŕŗřśŝşšșţťŧțũūŭůűųŵŷźżž

    Would it be possible to raise a bug or an improvement request to Microsoft for this?
