Issue ID: 125257
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: Supplementary Multilingual Plane selection in menù
Insert, Special Characters
Product: Internationalization
Version: 4.1.0
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: ui
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
The menù Insert, Special Characters ...
does not allow insertion of "Supplementary Multilingual Plane 1".
On Windows seems that built in Character Map cannot show those chars, and also
Notepad, with notstandard ALT+HEXCODE sequence (after registry hack), does't
support insertion of SMP chars, so probably no way on Win.
But also on Linux where Gnome Character Table correctly show all SMP chars, and
standard ISO key sequence: CTRL+SHIFT+U HEXCODE correctly insert codepoint >
U+FFFF, OpenOffice still miss show and selection of those chars in menù Insert,
Special Characters, showing the same limit of Windows Character Map. This is
not acceptable.
Expected behave:
a new drop down selection with:
- Plane 0: Basic Multilingual Plane for codepoint 0000–FFFF
- Plane 1: Supplementary Multilingual Plane for codepoint 10000–1FFFF
- Plane 2: Supplementary Ideographic Plane for codepoint 20000–2FFFF
- Plane 14: Supplementary Special-purpose Plane for codepoint E0000–EFFFF
- Plane 15/6: Supplementary Private Use Area for codepoint F0000–10FFFF
as reference see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_(Unicode)
so user can show and select chars from different than BMP planes, at least on
Linux.
