Question by Daniel-Talis · Aug 24, 2011 at 05:17 AM · keycodeunicode

Grave Accent Keycode

Hi, on the standard qwerty keyboard, there is a character to the left of the 1 on the row of numbers. It is generally referred to as the 'Grave Accent' or the 'back tick'. Does anyone know what it is referred to in Unity3D in the keycodes? I would like to be able to use it. (Not the tilde which is obtained by using the Shift key).

$$anonymous$$y keyboard's got a paragraph sign and a half (1/2) on that particular key. :P Are you working with a french layout or something?

Nope, it's the most common keyboard layout in the world http://www.google.nl/search?hl=nl&nord=1&q=american+keyboard+layout&gs_sm=&gs_upl=&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&biw=1600&bih=837&ion=1&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi

True, I Google pictures of qwerty and found the same. Apparently, I'm the one with the different keyboard. But that's okay. $$anonymous$$y mom always told me I was special. ;)

At least you can type half a paragraph in just two keypresses!

Don't bother.. I found it.. They call it 'The Back Quote Key'.

Unity has full unicode character encoding support for its fonts. Just be sure to use a font that has the character you are referencing, for instance à, and then reference it with the correct unicode.

Hi Joshua, I've changed the Title of this Question to clarify. I want to be able to use the $$anonymous$$ey, not the Character. Yes, I'm looking for the $$anonymous$$eycode for the $$anonymous$$ey that resides left of the number One on a qwerty keyboard. I hunted through those available at.. http://unity3d.com/support/documentation/ScriptReference/$$anonymous$$eyCode.html but cannot recognise it.

For future reference: With a swedish keyboard layout the keycode is KeyCode.Backslash. (And no we don't get backslash, we get the § character).
