Hi @alexcflopes ,

The current search seems to be working for special characters as shown in screenshot.

May I know what is the use case you are trying to solve here with some example.

Hi.
In Brazilian portuguese there is a LOT of words with accents and special characters, but It is very common to search such words not using special characters . Eg.: typing "Autorizacao" instead of "Autorização" (authorization in english), or "Experiencia" instead of "Experiência" (experience in english).

At the same time is important to allow special character based searches, for eg.: typing ç and ã in "Autorização", for accuracy.

The MR is to allow this dual search behaviour for all Protuguese-BR special characters.

Tks
Alex
