ref. my contact with Chris in BitsDuJour today. About difficulty to write in Unicode (classical Greek). It is OK when I paste a text in cl.Gr. but I cannot type. In place of breathing marks it gives a question mark instead. Please see 3 attachments.

    I've been through some tests using a Windows 10 Home v 1909 PC.
    Languages installed are: English and Greek.

    You can see from the image below, just with normal typing on a physical keyboard and a virtual keyboard, the characters displayed correctly on a brand new Note using the Documents section. Take a look at the Windows settings I've shown. Do you have this kind of setup or something different?

    The Greek you typed is "monotonic" not classical ("polytonic") Greek, that is without breathing marks on top of the characters.

    ήλθον είδον και απήλθον (monotonic)

    ἦλθον εἶδον καί ἀπῆλθον (polytonic, Classical Greek)

    as you can see, in this message I CAN type polytonic, but not in DoggiePIM!!
