Aha! thank you, I'm yet not used to my new keyboard and forgot there was actually a key named "all option"

Incidentally "Adjust the font size" icons don't seem to work. Anyone know how to use 'em


yes


Aha! eta, I was evidently clicking the right mouse key instead of the left, see how I've attained my objective, thank you most kindly

I think my technique only works up to ALT-0255, ÿ

WARNING: pronunciation of the umlauted Y should not be attempted by amateurs. Severe neck and back damage could result. Even trained professionals should not try it indoors. Always be sure to have sufficient room and a flat surface when attempting this outdoors.

Sorry folks. You'll just have to pretend the squiggles, dots and assorted other trimmings are there.
