Where's the # key in Lion
In Snow Leopard alt-3 used to print a #, in Lion it doesn't. I'v tried different key combination keyboard viewer but still no luck. Any ideas were the # key went?
Since it varies by keyboard layout - why not open your keyboard viewer and find out?
In the US keyboard layout on lion, it's still shift + 3
You have to select this from the menu bar after enabling it in the menu bar
It's still Alt-3 on my UK keyboard -- ###.
I like to use the widget:
CharacterPal
Searching and copying a needed character is faster than with the keyboard viewer:
- You do can look through all characers at once. With the keyboard viewer you need to hold ⌥ and ⇧ to see more characters.
- Characters are sorteded by type: greek, keyboard, math...
- TOP: You can find special (keyboard) symbols like ⌦, ⌘, ⎋, ⏏, ⌤ ...
