Lack of Unicode Support in Dialog

Post by armsys » Sat Apr 26, 2008 9:43 am

Dialog appears unfriendly to unicode. Amongst others, that means no items in Asian language can be displayed properly. Even worse, for those Western characters such as ¢X is displayed as ?. Can I programmically force dialog be displayed in Western European (Window)?

No. Unfortunately unicode is not fully supported and there isn't anything you can do about it. Macro Scheduler is built with a compiler that doesn't yet fully support unicode. A version with unicode support is scheduled for later this year. And we will therefore follow suit.
