How to type characters like é?

[Rinkerbel]

I can't get it to work.
I tried searching 'compose key' in the settings but there was none, then I tried the alternative characters key, but that didn't work either.

Typing documents gets a bit hard and I have to either copy paste from the internet or the auto correct saves me.
Any idea on how to fix this?

Alright, I found the right layout and figured out how to use the compose key.
Thanks for helping me out!!
