Tilde character on Mavericks/Macbook air with Norwegian keyboard turns into >

After upgrading my MB Air & upgrading to Mavericks, I can't get my beloved tilde character to turn up. I got a Norwegian keyboard, so there is no dedicated tilde character.

Answers from Google and search here has so far not solved the problem for me.

I tried using KeyRemap4MacBook with option Shift+Escape to tilde, which gives me the > character.

This fits what has been mentioned elsewhere: That the tilde on the international keyboard is between left Shift and the Z key - which on mine is >

Is there something obvious i'm missing?

On the Apple Norwegian layout, tilde should be at option plus ¨, then space.

On the Apple Norwegian Extended layout, tilde should be at option plus k, then space.

If you switch to the non "extended" keyboard layout (doing this does not mean that the numpad stops working) then you can use the much simpler key combination Alt+^ to make a ~ character

How to do this:

Open System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Input Sources -> find Norwegian Bokmål in the list -> select Norwegian

When you have done this I would urge you to delete the "Norwegian Extended" keyboard so you are sure what keyboard you are using. You can just re-add it using the recipe above if you change your mind.

On my Macbook Pro with a Norwegian Extended keyboard I press Option + k, and then I press Space
