Problems with Cyrillic

[AlexSV]

Hello, Tom!

In the latest versions of KMotion and KMotionCNC, Cyrillic characters in program comments are completely broken.
There were problems before, for example, in the KMotion5.0.7 version, it was impossible to write comments in Cyrillic directly in the window of the G-code or the C-code editor, but files with Cyrillic characters created in other editors opened correctly.
Is there any way to fix this?

Hi Alex,

Could you be more specific? I seem to be able to paste Greek/Russian characters into the GCode Editor properly. Is it a keyboard issue?

Was there a change between Versions?

Are the files encoded in UTF-8?

btw we are working on a new version that is compiled as a Unicode App vs a multi-byte ANCI. This will allow file and folder names to be Unicode. Unfortunately this involves thousands of changes. Would you be willing to test when it is ready?

The G-code file was in windows-1251 encoding, I saved it in UTF-8 and the problem with opening files edited in other programs went away.
The problem of direct input from the keyboard remains. This is what happens if you try to type the word (Инструмент) from the keyboard in the Russian layout.

Yes, I can test the new version.

Hi Alex,

When I test the Keyboard shows the English characters instead of Cyrillic.

You state it is broken. Do you recall if this ever worked correctly?

The new Unicode Version seems to work correctly. But there are still a number of other problems. Please give us some time to resolve those.

Tom, happy New Year!
In my opinion, this problem has always been there.
