Summary | 0000988: Unicode problem: Can't search for places with unicode characters | ||||
Description | Searching in the map pane for places like in non-latin scripts such as Chinese, Thai or Russian fails with the message --------------------------- "??" not found... --------------------------- To reproduce, search for ?????? (Moscow), ????????????? (Bangkok) or ?? (Beijing). This happens regardless of using google maps, OSM, etc. My PC runs an english-language Win XP SP3, "Language for Non-Unicode Programs": German | ||||
Additional Information | It is still possible to search for transliterations of the places' names such as "Beijing", "Krung Thep"/"Bangkok" etc. but this makes geosetter slightly more difficult to use for people dealing with pictures taken all over the world. | ||||

Okay, all the Chinese, Thai and Russian characters have been replaced with question marks by the bug tracking software (also Unicode-unaware?). Basically it's possible to get the characters on the corresponding wikipedia pages... |
