Re: Umlaut--Success!
Thanks Devin,
I took the data from your file and did a few tests. Eventually, it
turned out that the following works:
on mouseUp
put "efff 00e6 3080" into myChars
replace space with empty in myChars
put binaryEncode("h*",myChars) into myBin
set the unicodetext of fld 1 to myBin
--set the textFont of char 1 to -1 of fld 1 to "Lucida
Grande,unicode"
end mouseUp
You need a stack with one field and one button to run this script.
Set the script of the button to the above.
My observations:
- this doesn't work without the signature efff
- setting the font of the characters afterwards is not possible
- it works with both Verdana and Lucida Grande, but you really have
to set the textFont of the field in advance
Additional remarks:
- above script needs adjustment for Intel machines (both Mac and PC)
- my earlier statement saying that it was not possible is wrong.
Best regards,
Mark
