Memoq - How to insert Zero width joiner using Keyboard shortcut

Hello,

Typing in Telugu requires inserting zero width joiner frequently.

I find that there is no option to insert zero width joiner in memoq. ( I have looked up in the insert symbol window. )

How can I insert this character?

And if I can insert, is there a way to configure the keyboard layout so that I can insert with a keyboard shortcut?

Many thanks in advance.

Try this code: May 14, 2015

Hello Pradeep,

The code for this character is:

Alt + 8205 (From the right numpad).

You can get a full list of such codes from the following website:

Best regards

Thank you, not working though May 15, 2015

Hello Abdullah,

Thanks for the response and the link you provided is interesting.

But, unfortunately, the said shortcut is not working on memo q.

For the moment, I have decided to add ZWJ(zero width joiner) while proof-reading in Ms-word, where I insert ZWJ with a shortcut key with two strokes.

A notepad file could help May 17, 2015

Hello Pradeep,

You're welcome!

That is ok. You can also open a notepad file in the background and insert the ZWJ in it once and cope and paste it in MQ each time you need it.

Have a nice time
