Texmaker and TeXstudio ⇒ Problem with ~ and ´

[jcmt_pico]

Hello there,
Every time I try to write a word containing a special character it fail.
For example if I try to write discussão it appear in this way discuss~ao (in the editor). I found a way of solving this, by write the word some where else and the paste to the editor...
Does anybody know how can I solve this.

In the Preamble:

Code: Select all

\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

And in future, please provide a minimal working example along with your question (read Board Rules).

Hi,

try this:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}

\begin{document}

discuss\~ao

\end{document}

Edit: or, as meho_r suggested:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

\begin{document}

ã

\end{document}

If your editor doesn't support unicode, change utf8 to latin1.

It's not about the packages...
I notice that when it happen if I simply go to the options/configure texmaker/editor and change the font encoding to the same that is selected iso-8859-15 it starts to work fine again

its wired but it works
Thank u all
