The "degree" sign

[funnelweb]

Hi fellow brewers..

Just wanted to tip you all, that doing the "degree" sign the "right" way is Alt+248

Like 161°F looks (impov) a bit better than fx 161*F or 161oF....

Cheers

I use Alt + 0176. Alt + 248 is easier to type. Thanks.

Pretty hard to do that on a mobile device!

On iOS you can tap and hold the 0 key.

Nice! Taking us up a few *'s.

Neat, I always wondered how people did that. I always either used * (150*F) or just copy/pasted from somewhere that had the correct symbol. Now I feel like a dummy.

Link to an easy reading chart for special symbols. This was contains the ° symbol using Alt + 248. Better chart than the one I had found before.

We've all had that feeling.

For anyone on a Mac it's option+zero. º º º º

Hmmm, I've always done Alt+0176 also, this saves me a keystroke, which means more time for beer! :rockin:

On a Mac, you actually want option-shift-8: °

Option-zero is actually a superscript number 0: º

...no, really, they're different! º°º°º°º

I use the special characters and double click on what I want. If you've never looked thru special characters, there's a lot of cool stuff in there. I keep it in the bottom dock.
