Most are offered with a short, medium, and long overstrike for correct positioning over or under each character.Īs you enter any of the overstrike positions of the specific accent or mark, Accordance enters the character or the combination with the correct amount of overstrike for the previous or following letter. Most accents and other diacriticals are entered after (to the right of) the character. The Automatic diacritical marks feature affects the various overstrike characters-accents and breathing marks and their combinations. But if sigma is followed by another letter, it takes the regular form. As you press “s”, the final sigma form appears.

The Automatic final letter feature alters the form of the Greek sigma depending on its position in the word. These features can be turned off for all Accordance tabs via the Preferences dialog box (Greek & Hebrew area). Two Accordance text entry features facilitate the correct entry of the Greek. Text can also be entered using the international Greek Polytonic Keyboard this option is set in the Greek & Hebrew area of the Preferences dialog box. The accents and breathing marks are organized so they are easy to find.
