Keyboard Shortcut for Umlaut
Hi all,
hope this is the right forum discussion for this question.
I type on an English (qwerty) keyboard and 50% of the time in the German language. This means that for the Umlaut ¨ as used frequently above German vowels, it requires additional keystrokes, which I would like to minimize.
For example typing ä I must press option+u then a. Any tips on how I can cut out at least one step or more? I do this for the letters a,e,i,o,u and also option+s to get ß.
Obviously I don't want to lock the vowel keys to Umlaut as I frequently swap from English to German, in addition need to use normal vowels in German also.
Thanks in advance
