Thread: PgAdmin III Bug: cannot enter national characters in query tool

PgAdmin III 0.9.0 BETA 1 (Aug 6 2003) on Windows XP

Description: I cannot enter lowercase or uppercase characters š and ž
(Slovenian letters: s with hachek and z with hachek) in query tool. I can
enter this character in other text boxes. If I switch keyboard layout to
English and press this key (i.e. key that is used in Slovenian keyboard
layout to enter š or ž), the characters [ and \ are displayed correctly.

Other characters can be entered without problem.

Hi Matej,

I'm clueless. Nobody mentioned any char entering problems so far, and I 
don't see anything special about these hachek chars, not even their 
8-bit representation (0x9a and 0x9e). I can load files with them and can 
copy and paste them without problem.
Unfortunately, I can't enter the char using Alt-Numpad, because the stc 
control interprets these keys themselves (word-wise skipping), nor do I 
have a Slovenian kb setting on my machine.

Can you compile from source? Can you check the STC example from 
wxWindows with unicode first?

Andreas

Hi!

On the pgAdmin3 site 
(http://www.pgadmin.org/pgadmin3/development.php#dev_snap) there's a link, 
pointing to daily snapshots for Windows. It is currently pointing to 
http://www.pgadmin.org/snapshots/windows which doesn't exist, it should be 
either http://www.pgadmin.org/snapshots/win32/ or 
http://www.pgadmin.org/snapshots/win32-installer/ .
