French Keyboard
Caret Symbol (Linux
®
Clients Only)
The Virtual KVM Client and the Multi-Platform Client (MPC) do not
process the key combination of Alt Gr + 9 as the caret symbol (^) when
using French keyboards with Linux clients.
To obtain the caret symbol:
From a French keyboard, press the ^ key (to the right of the P key), then
immediately press the space bar.
Alternatively, create a macro consisting of the following commands:
1. Press Right Alt
2. Press 9.
3. Release 9.
4. Release Right Alt.
Note: These procedures do not apply to the circumflex accent (above
vowels). In all cases, the ^ key (to the right of the P key) works on French
keyboards to create the circumflex accent when used in combination with
another character.
Accent Symbol (Windows XP
®
Operating System Clients Only)
From the Virtual KVM Client and the Multi-Platform Client, the key
combination of Alt Gr + 7 results in the accented character displaying
twice when using French keyboards with Windows XP clients.
Note: This does not occur with Linux clients.
