LV text rendering, MBCS, OS, Unicode

[wiebe@CARYA]

I'm pretty sure there are people using CP1251 out there. Either they gave up, or they solved this problem. Would be nice to get some insight from them.

I have tried other things but no luck.

Maybe this is related to LV installation?

Hi pawhan11,

I tried different way to do a unicode conversion for UTF16 which works fine till U8, Finally i went with Excel  VB macro function and embedded in LabVIEW to RUN Macro and read back Unichar Values from excel

Thanks for reply.

Unfortunately installing excel on all possible machines is not an option only to provide translation.

I no longer work on this project but it would be nice to find solution, or logical explanation why this does not work. i will give it another try with clean os and clean LV on other pc.

Excel has a exact function for Unicode Conversion, whereas LabVIEW is not supporting even when Unicode= True is given in LabVIEW.ini.

LabVIEW Works fine if your Unicode is U8.
