=== Switzerland === On [https://kbdlayout.info/KBDSG/10.0.17134.1/Overview+virtualkeys Swiss keyboards], AltGr in combination with the following keys types the following characters: {{Col-begin}} {{Col-break|width=20%}} * {{keypress|AltGr|1}} → <big>¦</big> * {{keypress|AltGr|2}} → <big>@</big> * {{keypress|AltGr|3}} → <big>#</big> * {{keypress|AltGr|4}} → <big>°</big> {{Col-break|width=20%}} * {{keypress|AltGr|5}} → <big>§</big> * {{keypress|AltGr|6}} → <big>¬</big> * {{keypress|AltGr|7}} → <big>|</big> * {{keypress|AltGr|8}} → <big>¢</big> {{Col-break|width=20%}} * {{keypress|AltGr|<}} → <big>\</big> * {{keypress|AltGr|E}} → <big>€</big> * {{keypress|AltGr|'}} → <span style="background-color: orange"><big>´</big></span> ([[dead key]]) * {{keypress|AltGr|^}} → <span style="background-color: orange"><big>~</big></span> ([[dead key]]) {{Col-break}} * {{keypress|AltGr|Ü}} / {{keypress|AltGr|È}} → <big>[</big> (See explanation below) * {{keypress|AltGr|¨}} → <big>]</big> * {{keypress|AltGr|Ä}} / {{keypress|AltGr|À}} → <big>{</big> (See explanation below) * {{keypress|AltGr|$}} → <big>}</big> {{Col-end}} [[Switzerland]] has four national Languages ([[German_language|German]], [[French language|French]], [[Italian_language|Italian]], and [[Romansh language|Romansh]]). The Swiss keyboard layout is therefore designed with compatibility in mind for all four languages. In [[German-speaking Switzerland|German-speaking]] and [[Romansh-speaking Switzerland]] (as well as the [[Czech Republic]]), the Swiss German layout is used, while in the French-speaking and Italian-speaking Switzerland, the Swiss French layout is used. The two layouts only differ on three keys—OEM1, [https://stackoverflow.com/a/582502 OEM5], and OEM7. On the Swiss German layout, these three keys are labelled {{keypress|<sup>è</sup>ü}}, {{keypress|<sup>é</sup>ö}}, and {{keypress|<sup>à</sup>ä}}, respectively, while on the Swiss French layout, the labels are inverted as {{keypress|<sup>ü</sup>è}}, {{keypress|<sup>ö</sup>é}}, and {{keypress|<sup>ä</sup>à}}; namely, the base layer and the {{keypress|Shift⇧}} layer are swapped. However, with respect to the {{keypress|AltGr}} layer, the region-specific layouts are irrelevant. Swiss German: {{keypress|AltGr|Ä}} → { Swiss French: {{keypress|AltGr|À}} → {
