+ecanderson Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 This 40º was produced on a U.S. keyboard as ALT 1-6-7, not 1-7-6. Be sure the num lock is turned on. Hold alt, press 3 numbers. Release alt. Quote Link to comment
+CacheFreakTim Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 If you are on Windows and need to type in any of those non standard characters you can use "Character Map". This program is under either the Accessories, or System Tools folder. It will allow you to not only use the degree symbol but all of those weird characters. Quote Link to comment

+Viajero Perdido Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 I (seriously) open up a cache page, any cache page, and copy-and-paste the degree symbol from the cache's coordinates. I don't use degree symbols often enough to remember the shortcut. Whatever it might be on Linux... Quote Link to comment
