Touche . (decimal) qui ne fonctionne pas

On the keyboard you're using can you access the . directly or do you need the Shift key? Which keyboard layout do you use?

I can do it both ways, but I have an AZERTY keyboard since I live in France. I tried switching to an American keyboard, and it works fine, but it would be a big change and a hassle to learn a new layout just to get the decimal point.    Is that an another way ? 

thank you very much 

For international layouts it's usually recommended to disable the option "Use Shift as Eos Shift". You can find it in Setup > Device > Face Panel > Input Devices. 

With this disabled you will have to use Z for Eos Shift which might be feel unusual in the beginning, but the advantage is that now you can use Shift on your keyboard to get to special characters without interfering with Eos Shift.

Yes, it works—thank you very much! You just saved my day
