i have try some methods to show up Greek chars in the dialogs but no success until now
the Greek letters in desktop (mac-Windows) is working ok,but in the ios (ipad) i get the source from the answer dialog.
i am using a hidden fld
here is the code
Code: Select all
put the dgdataofindex[it] of control "grid1" into myarray
put myArray["first_name"]&& myArray["last_name"] into theKey
set the unicodetext of fld "text1" to uniencode(theKey,"utf8")
set the htmltext of field "text1" to mTag
answer question "Delete"&& (mTag) with "Delete" and "No"
the last photo is from ipad!!
any clue or solution about this?

Hi vedus,
the explanation is this simple:
In livecode the "Ask" and "Answer" dialogs are just STACKS and are scripted (by RunRev) to display HTMLTEXT if you supply it!
On iOS and Android, these dialogs are supplied by the underlying OS and that OS does not know at all what HTMLTEXT means,
because HTMLTEXT is a Livecode specific term!
OK, that's what's happening here, but I have no idea how to workaround this.

Hi vedus,
well, why not build your own "dialog" in that case?
Create and show/hide a group with that look and you are done
