Olorin -> German umlaut in editor (11/28/2015 3:59:05 PM)
Hi all, I'm having trouble typing German characters in the editor (ü, ö etc). I also tried exporting the OOB, editing it and then importing it, but that replaced all the umlauts with questionmarks. Is there a way to do it?

Yes, you can do it. Type 'Alt 129' for the umlaut, how are you doing it ?

Olorin -> RE: German umlaut in editor (11/28/2015 9:59:29 PM)
disregard

I'll try that, thanks. I used the conventional mirosoft combo: ALT+0223 = ß ALT+0228 = ä ALT+0246 = ö ALT+0252 = ü ALT+0196 = Ä ALT+0214 = Ö ALT+0220 = Ü But they don't work, unless I'm missing something. Edit: OK, I tried Alt+129 and it produced a questionmark again. Alt+0129 produces a graphical glitch: [image]local://upfiles/29020/C10DE7189AE74D41AE6BCD64EB26614E.jpg[/image]

Well, looks like we are doing the same thing but with different results. Are you using 3.4.1.9 ? That's what I am using. Don't know if that makes a difference. [image]local://upfiles/24850/988108B68E3E4AFFB42C6F5D9B343CC9.jpg[/image]

Mine might be too small to see, but I've got Jäger and Küsten there. And I changed my scheme to the old green COW, but that won't make any difference to the characters.

If I understand it correctly, this is a known issue to be fixed in TOAW IV.

Olorin -> RE: German umlaut in editor (11/29/2015 12:03:02 PM)
Sigh Changed to windows fonts and it worked in the editor, but not when I load my new scenario. Older scenarios use them normally. It seems we have to wait for TOAW IV for this issue to be fixed.
