How do I create the @ character on the Logitech Craft keyboard? I have tried the L + altgr key combination, but it does not work.

The problem is: The keyboard behaves differently when it is attached to a Windows computer and to a Mac computer. And it also behaves differently when I press special keys in a Mac app and in a Windows app from a Parallels VM on that Mac!

  • Which model do you have. The one I looked at (Tech Radar) has the @ key above the 2 key, so Shift 2.

    My Craft version has a GERMAN keyboard layout. So there is no @ character on the number 2 key. But there is a @ character on the Q key and one on the L key. But there is no PDF manual for the Craft keyboard which tells me how I can output this character.

  • I found it at Cannot write the @ symbol w/ German keyboard (Windows) so it might be Atom-specific, but does shift+ A umlaut work?

  • Maybe easier to use auto hot key

You can use Alt + 4-digit numeric keypad combos on most applications.

Hold down Alt , press 0 0 6 4 on the numeric keypad (for laptops without a numeric keypad, you may need to hold the Fn ) in sequence, then release Alt .

This works to compose most characters, such as Alt 0 1 6 7 for the section sign, §, and Alt 0 1 6 0 for the non-breakng space, useful in HTML.

Since some applications steal key-presses, though, it does not work everywhere.

    Isn't there a SIMPLE way by pressing one or maximally two keys?

    Your answer does not work: I have tried every alt key on the keyboard.

  • @DrRedAnt, thank you, (left) Ctrl + Alt + Q does work! But it seems you misspelled the rest of your comment?

    Isn't there an explaining PDF manual for the Craft Keyboard and for its different language keyboard layouts? I have searched for it but I didn't find any.

EASY ANSWER: German keyboard (for subscript signs) @, €, etc...

PRESS: all together (bottom left corner keys) STRG + Alt + (key needed)(Q/@)

Ta-da!!

My first time in Germany , I could not figure it out, and would have to keep copy pasting the subscript @,€ signs...

Finally

Btw: European STRG (string) is like the equivalent of CNTRL
