    Textbox do not accept accentuation

    Silverlight is amazing!

    The TextBox is not accepting accentuation.

    Thanks.

    What do you mean?  You mean it's not accepting accented characters, like 'é'?

    Can you post your XAML?  I made a quick SL app with a textblock and a textbox, and it worked great.

    Hi!

    I'm having the same problem... and I think it has nothing to do with XAML but with the OS and / or Keyboard configuration... I'm using Vista Ultimate in Spanish with keyboard configured in Spanish - Mexico... I'm looking forward to test it int XP Pro English - Keyboard Spanish International sort... I'll keep you informed.

     Regards

    I've made the test on XP Pro English - Keyboard Spanish International... and got the same problem... I also noticed that key's related to Alt Gr are not working either.

    Ah yes, I'm seeing it.  I was copying from the character map the first time, which does work, but I added the Spanish (Int'l Sort) keyboard and it looks like using the Ctrl+', <letter> input doesn't work.  It also looks like if you just type ' or " into a textbox it inputs twice.  Thanks for pointing the issue out.

    I hope that you guys understand the severity of this bug. Without Alt-Gr support users will not be able to enter email adresses in german speaking countries (100mil population) as @ is mapped to Alt-Gr + Q. So please put this on the top of the list for bug fixes.
