F Freya Member Wednesday at 8:39 PM #1 I’m trying to use the alt keyboard on Mac but I’m confused about the key mappings. Some shortcuts don’t seem to work the same as Windows. How do I properly use it?

G Gdinscecar Member Yesterday at 8:19 AM #2 On a Mac, the Alt key is called the Option key. To use it: Type special characters: Hold Option (⌥)+ another key Example: Option + 3 = £ Option + e, then e = é Access hidden symbols: Try different Option combinations to see variations Keyboard shortcuts: Option is used in many shortcuts (e.g., Option + Command + Esc to force quit apps) Upvote 0 Downvote
