Editor cannot display Chinese character properly

Hi,

Can you run this app

Code:

/******************************************************************************/

void InitPre()

{

   EE_INIT();

}

bool Init()

{

   Str s=S+App.langOs()+' '+(App.langOs()==CN);

   ClipSet(s);

   Exit(s);

   return true;

}

void Shut()

{

}

/******************************************************************************/

bool Update()

{

   if(Kb.bp(KB_ESC))return false;

   Gui.update();

   return true;

}

void Draw()

{

   D.clear(WHITE);

   Gui.draw();

}

/******************************************************************************/

And paste here the results?

Currently the code page transformation will happen only if your App.langOs==CN

What about App.langOs==TW or App.langOs==HK? CN is the mainland China, which is simplify Chinese. My Windows 8.1 is not simplify Chinese.

Can you let me know what 'App.langOs' do you have?

I tried the snippet above, the error code is 41.

Or do you mean the LANG_TYPE in Misc.h?

I can't find one match my country code. Because there are two type of Chinese character, Chinese and Simplify Chinese, the one in Mics.h maybe Simply Chinese?

Hi,

I think your result is "4 1" not "41".
I've done some more tests, and found out the problem, uploading the newer editor right now.

It's now available.

It still return 4 1, and the output is not OK yet.

Hi,

If you open the file in notepad or other viewer you will see that it's OK now.

However you may see "???" still because the global Font of the Editor does not include Chinese characters.
I've thought that the Output window used the Code Editor font which can have Chinese characters, however it uses the global font which currently does not have Chinese characters.
I can add that in first priority for 50$ - changing Editor global font to a custom one.
This will also include File Dialogs with Chinese characters across the Editor.

Thanks

I see, the font is correct in notepad. Thanks for fixing this issue.

I just start to learn how to use this engine, it is not so top priority for the output display.

I think in order to increase the popularity of this engine, the support for other fonts in editor should be addressed, otherwise some users might run away after watching garbage characters.
