Upside Down Punctuation on Keyboard

Question

I have my keyboard set to Spanish (Mexico) - US International. Does anybody know how to get "¿" and "¡" to show up using the keyboard setting? I can find how to do this with unicode keys, but I would like to know which combination of regular keys will do this, if such exists. (E.g., ' + a = á.)

Thanks in advance for your help!

Answer 1

Use the right 'alt' key plus the ! or the ? to turn it upside down. Like so: ¿ ¡. It's best to use international version in place of the Spanish Keyboard. That's what I use and it works for me.

In the US International you can also use Ctrl+Alt+?! to turn them upside down - 0074b507, Jan 17, 2012

Thanks, ajaks! :D - FlatpickingJoy, Jan 17, 2012

also in the international version you can use the ' mark for accents. press it once then the vowel you want accented. - Himself12794, Jan 17, 2012
