    Accent grave on French Canadian Keyboard

    I have the same problem and I think I know what it is, though I still do not have a good solution. The French Canadian keyboard configuration puts the u accent grave character on a key between the z and the left shift key, but my physical keyboard does not
    have such a key.

    The least bad solution I have found when typing in French (I am indeed and French Canadian, but living in the US and I can't actually buy a keyboard, let alone a laptop with that physical keyboard configuration here) is to use the ALT code (ALT + 151 or
    ALT + 0249). Another possibility is to revert to the English US keyboard configuration (simply ALT + SHIFT, if you have set it up), type CTRL + ` and then u, and then come back to the French Canadian keyboard (ALT + SHIFT again) to continue writing.

    Neither of these solutions is awesome and if someone knows of a way to get that character with a simpler set of keystroke on a French Canadian keyboard configuration but a US physical keyboard, I would love to hear it!

    Cheers!

    Accent grave on French Canadian Keyboard

    Hello,

    I've recently started using the Canadian French Keyboard on my new Window 10 desktop. Unfortunately, I am having trouble finding the "u accent grave" on the keyboard. I could pretty much do every other accented alphabet but the "u accent grave".

    My keyboard have special keys for é, è, , ç, and everything else with "accent circonflex" or "le tréma" are manual.

    I also have a mac and the "u accent grave" is the tilde key next to 1 at the top left hand corner on that keyboard. On the PC, however it's the forward and back slash. I've exhausted every other option I could find on the internet so if anyone could kindly
    show me what to do that'll be awesome.

    Thank you.
