Unicode Edit Box will come...

Good news: Looks like I finally found a way to construct an edit control that fully supports UNICODE!
It will take some days in the laboratory but I think it's worth it. I'm quite embarrassed by the current state of affairs when it comes to renaming non-latin named file items, so I'm very happy that this will find an end soon!

Code: Select all
v7.10.0010 - 2008-05-14 11:29
+ Font Preview: Now the Edit box containing the sample text supports
UNICODE. In other words: I finally managed to write a UNICODE
compliant Edit Control -- a personal triumph :)
Good job!
Alt + Num Pad input method doesn't seem to be supported yet

No? Works here. Probably a DBCS issue...

OK, it's the keyboard selection issue. It has to be a Latin-based keyboard for Alt + Num to work.

Font, Family, and Subfamily in the font preview only support Latin alphabets

The cheese has bones! On my way of spreading the new edit box all over the app I have met fierce resistance from UserControls: loads of creepy side-effects... So, once again those freaky monsters crossed my plans, one time too much actually!
Enough is enough -- something made
SNAP in my mind, and I decided to remove all UserControls from the project!
When I'm done with this we all can enjoy a couple of glaring advantages, for example further extreme reduction in memory usage into unbelievable lows; and, of course, full-total-complete UNICODE support! The disadvantage: the conversion process will take any time from 2 to 6 weeks, hard to predict. I'll start it right after publication of 7.20.
