I yesterday tried again after a long time to build Lazarus with Cocoa on my Mac, Lazarus is now perfectly useable for my needs and as a bonus it seems a little faster than the Carbon version.

Great work!

The only issue I ran in is that I cannot enter '^'  from my german keyboard and, as a fact, also other charaters composed with deadkeys (accented keys) like á also do not work.

Any ideas on how to fix that?

What’s the keys combination to enter ‘^’?

Thanks,
Dmitry

As it is a dead key you first press '^' on the keyboard and then space. other example:  á is created by first pressing '´' and then 'a'

Do you know, if it's required to have German layout to be installed in the system.
IIRC (away from mac right now), "^" is entered by pressing Shift+6 on Mac (ansi keyboard with US keys layout) ...and it works.

What I'm thinking is that you're trying to enter the character in SynEdit. and it might be that Cocoa doesn't report a certain key combinations properly.

I presume you didn't have this issue in Carbon, thus it's neither SynEdit bug nor macOS specific behavior, but rather LCLCocoa issue.

That's why I need to know keys combination in order to track the problem on my end.

thanks,
Dmitry

I guess you will have to install the german layout as this deadkey stuff is layout specific.

Fun fact is that you also cannot enter ^ with the Keyboard overview of MacOS, when I switch to US keyboard all is fine for me.

fyi, the '^' key is left of the '1' key on a german keyboard on Macbook Pro

Found one more thing, entering the character 'ß' (Key right of '0' Key on german keyboard) crashes Lazarus, this also works from Keyboard Viewer (The App that gives you a mini virtual Keyboard on Mac).
