I am having problems while typing 'ज्ञ' (gya) in hindi.
When I updated ubuntu from 13.10 to 14.04, I noticed that the old hindi keyboard was missing, instead in the text entry settings, I saw three new hindi input sources:
Hindi(Bolnagri)
Hindi(Wx)
Hindi(KaGaPa phonetic)
One day, when I was typing in LibreOffice Writer in hindi, I had to type 'ज्ञान', but, I couldn't find the letter 'ज्ञ'. I searched the Keyboard Layouts and Character Maps of all three input sources but couldn't find it... (This problem stays with text editors too!)
Please help me and tell me where it is on keyboard if you think you know the answer! ( it's been a week since I've been thinking "How can they make such a big mistake as forgetting 'ज्ञ' in hindi!!" )
(NOTE: The 'ज्ञान' above was pasted after searching 'gyan hindi' in google!! :D )
EDIT: The Solution is:
ज्ञ = ज + ् + ञ
There is no specific key for this!

Go to Settings >> Region & Language. Now use the '+' below the “Input sources to use” to add your desired language. You will now be asked 'Add an input source', just click on 3 vertical dotted button to proceed. Next, search for any language like 'Hindi', or the language you want to use.
Go to language page, select the language and then click the options button to go to language options page. Add the keyboard by clicking the + icon and then select the type of keyboard.
Open the Activities overview and start typing Settings. Click on Settings. Click Keyboard in the sidebar to open the panel. Click the + button in the Input Sources section, select the language which is associated with the layout, then select a layout and press Add.
It uses sanskrit rules like
ज्ञ = ज + ् + ञ
The question is now solved!!!!
