  2. Lumia 920 - No accents available using Finnish / Swedish keyboard? Any fix for this?

    Thanks for the answer but no help. As said the "hold you finger down on the letters in question" works fine with English keyboard layout, but when using Finnish or Swedish keyboard, nothing happens when holding a finger down. I really doubt this feature
    has been left out intentionally, as letters with accents are really common in Swedish. The need to switch to US keyboard to type my name is really annoying.

    How to add 3 last Swedish letters to UK keyboard

    For me some Alt codes still work, while typing others seems to act like a 'hot key', going back one page in a browser for instance (odd). The ones for ä and ö do that!

    For ä and ö you can add the Unites States-International (QWERTY) keyboard. Switch to that when you want to create characters with accents.

    Type " followed by a for ä and " followed by o for ö. There's no way to produce å though. Fortunately that particular alt-code does still work: (left) Alt+0229 still produces å for me on a fully up to date Windows 10 version 1607.

    PS: if you have a UK keyboard (ENG UK) and switch to the ENG INTL one then the positions of @ and " are swapped. You'll need to remember to type @ when you want the " key.

    Thanks I had a long look at it but got into a real cul de sac when I also tried to use Dragon Speech 13 which I use a lot, not sure who was the more confused ! I've got round it temporarily using Lexibar.

    One way might be to buy the Swedish version of Dragon....?
