Hi,

I have been a rather happy user of Odyssey for more than a year. A couple of time I thought I ran into something strange regarding the virtual keyboard, but had no time to investigate further. This weekend I gave it a deep research and I stumbled on something as awkward as the missing text search function:

When writing in French, we very often need the "é" character, and somewhat often the "à" one. But I cannot find them on the virtual keyboard...

By hitting "&" then "àÀ", I get a set of less used accented characters, but not those needed ones.

Did I miss something or are they really missing?

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

V.
