Re: How can I get Unicode Menu Items on Windows?

2013-07-29 Thread Support Toki

Hi,

The best solution for using unicode menu is to add tags.
The menuPick handler will get the tag as a parameter, and the tag is 
always ANSI on all platforms.

For more explaination, check the keyword menu in the dictionary.
The tag allows to manage cascading menus when menuHistory doesn't.
I use this in a Chinese version of one of my app and it just works fine.

You menu text property will look like this:

新規/|ITEM1
開く/|ITEM2
閉じる/|ITEM3
-
終了/|ITEM4

And the menuPick handler:

on menuPick chosenItem

case ITEM1
-- put your stuff here
break
case ITEM2
...

Hope it helps.

Use menuHistory and custom function getUnicodeMenuItem.
It works on MacOS and WIndows. I do not use Linux. Please try.

Richmond,

You installed a vertical font. 
You can install regular fonts from an installer CD.
http://www.dartmouth.edu/~introjpn/00_windowsxp.html

You can show Japanese font in a field. 
But can not select menu items correctly.

 Richmond,

That seems quite obvious from my screenshots; unfortunately EPSON did
not specify that those were vertical fonts.

I'm sorry; but as I have no Japanese, and almost as little knowledge of
Windows XP, I did what
instinct told me to do.

Selecting menu items in your stack is also not doing much good on Linux,
I'm afraid.

Re: How can I get Unicode Menu Items on Windows?

2013-07-28 Thread Richmond
I do believe that if all the Japanese characters you use are
within the Unicode area reserved for Hiragana, Katakana and
Kanji it should not be necessary for end-users to have to
perform extra tricks to get your stuff working on their setup.

My, limited, experience with Livecode and Unicode fonts on Windows
has been fairly negative with the exception of XP.

Well then, that needs to be filed as a BUG report so that the RunRev

The way Livecode and Unicode DON'T WORK on Windows is a very sore point
that I have been banging on about
for ages with little or no result.
