Unicode characters don't work in the script editor. You need to create some workarounds using unicode encode and decode functions. Sorry bro.... http://newsletters.livecode.com/august/ ... etter4.php

Version 7 will have full Unicode support built in! (thats in the roadmap at least)

[jasonshow]

when will we get ver. 7 ?

I'm running a new project,I need to know I can use livecode.

Hi jasonshow,
Have you looked at this lesson?

thanks,Simon !

but I need 100% unicode support,just like you key english.

Hi jasonshow,
just as a check, could you post a line of code showing how you'd use Chinese? Want to make sure I understand your request.

hi simon,
you can try just key any Asian words in Script Editor,then save,clsose project,re-open it,the words become ????.

just simple like this.

answer "你好!"

Actually there is a simple workaround.
I think step 6/7 in the lesson shows an easy way.
"answer the htmlText of line 3 of fld 1"
would work if you loaded field 1 with all the text you would need.


But that is a workaround, you can wait till ver 7.

...But that is a workaround, you can wait till ver 7.

Hm, that will surely take some months before we actually can use that version!

[jasonshow]

any new solution about this ?

thanks.

Hi Jason,

see http://forums.runrev.com/phpBB2/viewtop ... =4&t=19658

this is the very early Developer version of Livecode 7.0, use with all precautions of using prerelease software. But that is where you can test full unicode.

I just tried

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
   put "你好!" into tTemp
   put tTemp into field 1
end mouseUp

and it worked. Since I don't know anything about non-latin languages I can't test further. But the text showed up after closing the editor and reopening it.

I also tried

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
   你
end mouseUp

on 你
   put "the command worked" into field 1
end 你

it also worked

Kind regards
Bernd
