Dear folks,

I got to use a compose key in previous versions of gnome or using a setxkbmap compose key when using other desktops.  But in this machine using gnome, I can't do what I used to do:

https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/3.3/tips-specialchars.html.en#compose

I want to do the same here since adding command(setxkbmap -option compose:ralt) to ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile does not work.  How can I add compose key or is there a new way to do it?

Best Regards,


Antonio

It's probably GNOME applying its setxkbmap options and overwriting changes that your command in ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile did.

You can the compose key using gnome-control-center -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Typing.
