Points in Uncials

[Outis]

Hello,

 

Is there any way to include the high, medial and low points after a word/phrase? (στιημὴ τελεία; στιγμὴ μέση; ὑποστιγμή)

 

I noticed that there are points included in the uncial where they belong. But I can't find the key bindings to input them when I'm typing on my own. And there doesn't seem to be any differentiation between the high, medial and low points.

 

Any thoughts?

You can define any character including punctuation by entering a period followed by the character, so

στιημὴ τελεία .;

 

It may look funny but it should work.

Hi Helen,

 

I don't know if my question was clear. So let me please rephrase. When one reads an uncial text there are these dots after each paragraph. If the dot is at the top of the line (e.g. ⲉⲛⲁⲣⲭⲏⲏⲛⲟⲗⲟⲅⲟⲥ•) then it signals a complete stop. If the dot is in the middle of the line and especially at the bottom (where a normal period would be), it signals a short pause (like a comma). Is there a way to have that dot appear? I can get it to appear at the top (ⲁⲣⲭⲏ·) and the bottom (ⲁⲣⲭⲏ.) . But can I stick one in the middle? That's what I can't figure out.

 

Is my question a little clearer now?

No, Helena does not have a dot in between the period and the semi-colon, the high dot.

Thanks for answering my question, Helen.
