Mac keyboard accents are not supported

1. Describe the bug/issue you’re running into?
Typing an accented letter in Mac OS can be done by keeping a keyboard letter pressed which reveals a range of accents.

2. Are you able to consistently reproduce it? If so what are the steps?
Open Figjam on a mac, type into a note, long press E, and try to insert an accented letter (e.g. é).

3. Share a screenshot, recording, console log, link to the file, etc.

4. Is the issue only happening in desktop app or a specific browser , or both?
Tested in the browser

5. What OS/version and/or browser/version are you using?
Desktop Chrome Version 89.0.4389.128 (Official Build) (x86_64)

Hello i found a work around that is pretty simple, for accents you press option+e and then the letter you want to place the accent on (áéíóú) and for ñ you press option+n plus the letter.

When are we receiving any reply for this? I have to correct all text in another software in order to put accents. Please help solving this bug

I’m on mac Catalina using the Figma web app. What is going on here?

This is a huge accessibility problem. It’s very disappointing considering all the other features the software provides.

Please make this a priority. Most languages apart from English use accents in their alphabet.
