Can't type pipe | symbol in ST3

#1

So I’ve used Sublime Text 3 for some time… It used to so that when I press ALT-GR + ´ (backtick symbol next to backspace on Nordic keyboards) it would make a | (pipe) symbol… Then I downloaded the new update and when I used it it would sometimes make the symbol and other times it would delete / go back to some previous code? I just installed the newest release… And now I can’t make a pipe symbol at all.

I only have one keyboard language on my computer. It’s only in ST3 I can’t make the pipe symbol.
My keyboard layout: http://demovare.dk/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/dansk-keyboard.png

Oh, and it was not a dev build btw.

there’s a post that, although specifically referring to a different key combination, contains info that will help you debug this:

It did indeed show me something. How would I rebind it to the | symbol?

Nevermind, got it to work. It was because of the “Automatic Backups” package. Just removed it and it’s working again.
