Troubleshooting

T1 - My keyboard layout is not correctly detected
First of all reliable detection of computer's keyboard layout is not possible while in a web browser - our algorithm is based on the language data. By changing your browser's language preferences, alterations can be made. However, not all QWERTY layouts are supported so this approach won't work in all cases.
T2 Control keys (e.g. insert, delete, arrows keys) don't work correctly
Usually they should, but there are issues; it is a known problem that in Opera insert and delete are displayed as characters instead of working as they should. Workaround for delete is to use backspace instead.
T3 I can write, but all character mappings don't work as they should!
Well yes, there are glitches, especially with more exotic characters. But if your keyboard layout is set correctly, all alphabetic characters should work.
