    Hi all!

    I need to use Ctrl + Alt for formatting text style on Google Docs and, instead, I keep getting accented characters. I need some accented characters to type in Portuguese, so I don't want them gone -- but I want them to stop interfering with other Ctrl+Alt commands. I'm happy with RAlt serving as AltGr.

    I would prefer avoiding registry remapping as sometimes non-Colemak users share my laptop (edit: and because other than this, this setup has been working fine for me).

    Thanks!

    If it interprets LCtrl+LAlt and/or RCtrl+Alt (any Alt) as AltGr, something's wrong. It's supposed to be only LCtrl+RAlt, specifically. File a bug complaint with Google. Firstly: Does it happen with other AltGr-using layouts such as the standard Portuguese one with accented characters?
