Hi, I did some work to improve the unicode support under the windows interface. Here is a screenshot with some controls I tested.
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/LCL_Unicode_Support#Screenshots I don't use all LCL features in my programs, so I would like to ask others to test the Unicode Support and report on Mantis what isn't working with small test programs. You can compile LCL with unicode using this instructions: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/LCL_Unicode_Support#Compiling_LCL-Win32_with_Unicode The encoding supported is UTF-8 Use an external editor (Notepad++ for example) to edit the source files (this includes the .lfm files too) to add UTF-8 strings. The Lazarus Windows IDE isn't capable of writing UTF-8 strings at the moment. Also make sure your source files don't have a UTF-8 BOM Marker. You can check this by looking the file with the lazarus source editor. If on the beginning of the file you see 3 strange characters, remove them. This is because of a FPC limitation (lacks the feature of setting the output of the widestring manager). thanks, -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho _________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject archives at http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailarchives
