no, it is only in the IDE main window (the place you type code in). That is what seems so strange to me. Also, if i open the serial monitor (which also is part of the IDE), i CAN input these characters [ ' " ] into the 'send' field. But still not in the main code window.
Just discovered that this problem seems to be about all characters that need a after it to occur on screen: not only the [ ' and " ] but also [ ` and ~ ] and probably some more: i dont normally need those though.
I'm testing this with different java versions, but so far no luck. Open office, terminal, eclipse IDE etc do not suffer from this problem.
-- EDIT --
when setting the keyboard layout to 'no dead keys' it works. Still confused though, i am pretty sure i had this option enabled with the previous IDE version.
