Native Font display problem
« on: March 12, 2014, 07:25:26 pm »
I download EA 11 beta2 and I found some problems with Native Font (I use Thai Font, EA9.3)

1. Display incorrect in "Notes" when editing (double click in Notes).


2. Generate document (report & html) display data (Thai font) in Notes incorrect, it display unicode like "[ch3594]&#..."


3. Wrapping word (Thai font) in component disappeared since EA10.
    (In EA9.3 it display correctly, but it lost since EA10)


I hope these problems will be solved before release new version.

To start off, I know very little about the Thai language. All my examples to test with come directly from the wikipedia page on Pangrams

1. I can reproduce this. Interestingly my sample text contained spaces. When I tried to remove them in the docked editor that initially shows correctly it adjusts the rest of the text to add additional spaces like you have highlighted. Even clicking in the window can be enough to cause it. I'll pass that on for further investigation.

Edit: Update from our developers, appears to only be an issue if spell checking is enabled. (Tools | Options | Objects) Investigations are ongoing.

2. I believe this had already been reported and will be fixed for our next build.

3. As you said, this was changed in v10. We have done some investigations on this and we should have the wrapping for eastern languages working before EA 11 is released.

Thanks for your reply, Simon.

In issue 1, as your advise, I checked "Disable Spelling".
It display better in EA11 (some character still has space behind),
but nothing in EA9.3.

By these issues, today I still use EA9.3 and not renew.
These problem I notify EA-support team since Nov.2012
and I get Issue ID: 12124164  on Dec. 11, 2012.
No fixed in following version, EA10...
But it better in EA11 beta.
 
So, I'm very glad to hear that. :)

Thanks again

Interesting, the bug report you reference says that the spaces being added happens on 9.3.

With the reporting issue and diagram wrapping fixed in it seems that the Release Candidate for 11 should be as good for Thai text as 9.3.

I hope that helps.

I download EA11 RC1 and testing. This version almost perfect display.
There is one problem.
When I opened existing project and checked "Disable Spelling",
some word display with exceed space behind it.





So I edit the word that had extended-space by delete exceed space and save. Then re-edit again, it’s display correctly.  
But it take time to edit all of them.  

Please fix this inconvenience.
Thanks.  :)
