How to make a hatted r - as in Dvorak's name

I can't find it in the usual F2 symbol table. US keyboard, so any accents at all are sorta complicated.

It might not be on the "Common Symbols" tab, but it's got to be on the "Unicode Symbols" tab for any full-featured font, probably in one of the Latin-Extended sections, depending on what kind of alphabet you are trying to use.

These are hard to find. I normally look in a regular Unicode table (I have several as huge text files on my system for the code, e.g. U+0159, but sadly, one cannot directly enter Unicode codepoints by hex number into MuseScore, so I have to look up in the Unicode blocks list, which follows…

… which block it is in (here, “Latin Extended-A” because it is in the range 0100‥017F), then I can select that block in the F2 list (it’s absolutely crucial that those names are not translated!), and only then does it insert the character.

Sometimes, the Meta, Mode_switch and/or Compose (Multi_key) keys one might have on a Unix keyboard work, but not all of the time. Copy/Paste from other applications (using the X11 PRIMARY or CLIPBOARD selections) with either middle-click or Ctrl-V also does not always work. I fully blame Qt 5 for this.

But MuseScore could add a hex input field to the F2 dialogue, since Qt doesn’t support the Ctrl-Shift-u+0+1+5+9 input method or anything else sensible.

I think I resorted to copying from the IMSLP (or another web-) page and pasting it into MuseScore. I don't thinks it's in the F2, but anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
