i was able to work around doing this:

type("10;0;0;196",KEY_SHIFT)

but this doesn't work when you try it in java code :(

You would not have any problem when using paste() instead. This is the method to prefer with longer text especially when it contains characters that are in different places on your keyboard than in the US layout.

I use type() only for single keys together with key modifiers.

The challenge for the developers is not a setting, it is the implementation of additional layouts.

pls. close this question as solved.

Can you help with this problem?
