TinyMCE defaults to US keyboard (2.1)

TinyMCE defaults to US keyboard (2.1)

My keyboard is UK but when entering text in Moodle 2.1, TinyMCE is switching to US. So finding where the tilde for Cloze Question syntax needs thought.

Any way of making it accept UK input?

Thanks

I don't think TinyMCE can be involved here. It is your computer's operating system that interpret's key presses, and converts them to the equivalent character. This information is then passed to you web browser. Only then does it get to TinyMCE or Moodle.

Thanks Tim,

You're right, of course. I was confused as everywhere else was following UK input. When I looked at the Keyboard control panel, I saw both US and UK were installed - just needed to change the order.
