I am not able to type symbol for Indian rupees using my 18.10. I have set Regional format as English ( India ) and in other areas where I can find English ( India ). But when I type ALT+4, I get 4 on gedit. Any fix available for this? Am I doing something wrong?

  • When you ctrl+shift+u to enter utf8 number codes you can release the keys, you should have an underlined u symbol on screen. This is kinda a bypass, there should probably be a altrgr/compose-key method too. – pbhj Oct 26 '18 at 19:51
  • I tried based on another answer which is removed now. I just need a fix for the INR icon. Is there one available ? Thanks. – user227495 Oct 27 '18 at 05:14

I managed to fix it ₹

First, you need to take " Language and Region " under " Input Sources " choose " English ( India with Rupees ) " and bring it to the top as seen in the image below.

Now you will hope that when you type Alt Gr + 4 ₹ sign will appear. No, you will have to choose it from the top bar as well as seen below
