A question for you pros out there.
I couldn't find much on this in the archives, so I have to ask you
all now:
Is there a way to use non Roman characters in the script editor? I
have a pop-up menu button that gives two language choices for the
program interface language - Estonian and Russian. All buttons and a
few other things have 2 profiles - Estonian and Russian with the
labels and text in the appropriate language. The problem seems to be
that when I put the Russian choices into the menuPick script it
doesn't respond. When I switch profiles with the message box, all is
well. Is there a workaround for this? Another way characterize the
menu choices that are in Russian in the button pop-up?
on menuPick pWhichItem
switch pWhichItem
case "eesti keeles"
beep
exit menuPick
break
case "vene keeles"
revSetCardProfile "rus"
break
case "на эстонском языке" -- could this be called
something like "line 1 of the menu items for profile rus" or
something along those lines?
revSetCardProfile "Master"
break
case " на русском языке" -- same as above
beep
exit menuPick
break
end switch
end menuPick
If there is not a known way to do this, anybody have any ideas? I
need to demonstrate this project at the Estonian Ministry for
Education and Research in a couple of weeks, so if I sound desperate,
I guess I am. I have tired everything I can think of and I still
hope I have the right idea but am making some little mistake I can't
see myself.
Cheers,
Lars
