Hi,
If you want to copy Turkish text from one field to another, you need to copy the unicodeText property:
Code: Select all
set the unicodeText of fld 2 to the unicodeText of fld 1

This is interesting: I would like to make cards in Dutch, English, Berber and Turkish. How do I do that?

Dear all
Maybe I shloud explain my point clearer to you;
I've got 21 Dutch cards in Dutch, now I want to copy them so I can make 21 English, 21 Berber and 21 Turkish cards.
How can i correct the Characters for each language? And how can I copy hole cards (the only thing I have to change is the Contents of the Fields)

Hi,
If you speak Dutch, you might want to ask this question in
the Dutch forum. Perhaps it is easier to explain in your own language.
There are probably several ways to do this. You could create a substack for each language and replace the text, but you could also store the text for each language in a custom property and use a script to display the text dynamically.
Btw it is much better to start a new discussion than to post a question in an old discussion that's not even remotely related to your question.
Kind regards,
Mark

Hi, docH,
It was merely a suggestion.
I think that Jean-Marc means a Tifinagh font. First, you need to download a font. ScriptSource is a great source of oftentimes free fonts. You can find Tifinagh
here (click on "link"). If you install it, then you can write in Tifinagh.
I hope to see you in the Dutch forum soon.
Kind regards,
Mark

Hi,
You can find them all on the installation discs of your operating systems. Also look at the page to which I linked before. I'm sure you can find some neat stuff there.
Kind regards,
Mark

Hi Mark
Arabic symbols is really a problem for me.
I copy arabic texts for translate.google.nl - putting them in Word is no problem, however when I try to put them in Contents of a Field, ????? appear.
I think I miss a font, for Arabic in my LiceCode. I can'tfind it in your links -- can you help again?
Thanx, docH

Hi,
If you have installed the Arabic language packs/fonts from your Windows/Mac OS X installation disk, then it should work. Feel free to contact me in the Dutch forum for more info. If you speak Dutch, then there's no need to discuss this in English.
Kind regards,
Mark

Beste Mark
Nu ik Arabisch PC heb aangevinkt gaat het inderdaad beter.
Alleen zet Word (en ook LiveCode) het axchterstevoren neer als ik het plak in Content.
Hoe voorkom ik dat?
