|
In :guilabel:`Code` mode, you enter a unicode character by typing in the hex code for the
|
|
character and pressing enter, for example, type in ``2716`` and press enter to get
|
|
✖. You can also choose a character from the list of recently used characters by
|
|
typing a leading period and then the two character index and pressing Enter.
|
|
The up and down arrow keys can be used to choose the previous and next unicode
|
|
symbol respectively.
|
|
|
|
In :guilabel:`Name` mode you instead type words from the character name and use
|
|
the arrow keys/tab to select the character from the displayed matches. You can
|
|
also type a space followed by a period and the index for the match if you don't
|
|
like to use arrow keys.
|
|
|
|
You can switch between modes using either the keys :kbd:`F1` ... :kbd:`F4` or
|
|
:kbd:`Ctrl+1` ... :kbd:`Ctrl+4` or by pressing :kbd:`Ctrl+[` and :kbd:`Ctrl+]`
|
|
or by pressing :kbd:`Ctrl+Tab` and :kbd:`Ctrl+Shift+Tab`.
