Hi Yousef, I would take a look at some library that we can used with freetype2 (our current text drawing low-level library). To re-create the wheels ourselves seems a bit overkill to me.
This text has a good overview, Panda caught my eyes there: http://behdad.org/text/ There is more to complex scripting than replacing the arabic letters by their presentation form. This is needed, but should happen under the hood at drawing time only imho. That said, given that ui drawing is likely the most daily demanding usage of text, I think "pre-baked" .po is still a great idea (I'm trying to improve the py script btw) -- Dalai 2011/10/23 Yousef Hurfoush <[email protected]> > > hello > > I was wondering after enabling UTF-8, how much work it needs to implement a > filtering function that replaces normal Arabic text with it's universal UTF > encoding, > as it is currently implemented in python forking a c++ version is trivial. > > _______________________________________________ > Bf-committers mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers > _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
