Bermary50 Posted June 24, 2021 Report Share Posted June 24, 2021 Hello Igor After having abandoned PTE for some time, I have just installed the latest version V10.5.1 for Mac. I work on MacOS Big Sur 11.3.1 I encountered a small bug with the French accented characters: - writing ô generates Ûo - writing ï generates Ûi This problem reappears in the final version. We had already encountered it in a beta version and it seems to me that you had found the solution. Thanks to you for fixing this bug Best regards, Bernard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to type text accented characters and they look as in TextEdit app. Please make sure that you use the latest version 10.5.1 in the About window. Did you mean a preview of a Text object, or the text box in the Objects and animation editor, in Properties tab? Can you give me two simple examples of keys which I should press to see this problem. Expected result, and wrong result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bermary50 Posted June 24, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2021 I give you an example with the following sentence: "Un champ de maïs longe la côte" When I write this sentence (on an AZERTY keyboard) in the text box in the Objects and animation editor, in Properties tab, I get this : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted June 24, 2021 Report Share Posted June 24, 2021 Bernard, Thanks for the details. How usually you type ï in "maïs" with French keyboard on Mac? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmG-06100 Posted June 24, 2021 Report Share Posted June 24, 2021 No problem with this text "Un champ de maïs longe la côte" with MS/Windows 10 for me. Igor: On a French keyboard, you can enter these diacritic characters by hitting first the key at the righht hand of "AZERTYUIOP", and then the letter to which this sort of accent is added. It works the same with the "grave" accent to be found with [ALT-GR][7] to give À for instance. Similarly to get: ü, ö, ê, î , etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bermary50 Posted June 25, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2021 OK Igor ! Everything looks good now for the accented characters. Good job ! Thanks. But there is another problem: When I put a word containing an accented character in bold, the font changes ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you also test all variants how you type text with accents and umlauts on French? As I understood it's possible to enter accents with English keyboard layout (holding Option/Alt key) and with French keyboard layout. 3 hours ago, Bermary50 said: When I put a word containing an accented character in bold, the font changes ! Probably you use specific font? I don't see problem with Arial and Times New Roman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bermary50 Posted June 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2021 Igor Do you mean that we cannot use another font than Arial or Times New roman ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted June 26, 2021 Report Share Posted June 26, 2021 Try the same font in TextEdit app from macOS. How it works with bold text and accents? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bermary50 Posted June 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2021 Hello Igor I tried using the Brush Script MT font (it's a fairly common font, I think you know it). In TextEdit, I can't make the text bold. I contacted a friend who works on PTE for windows. He did the same tests with the same sentence and the same font and he has no problem changing the font when he puts the text in bold. On PTE Mac, I don't think this anomaly comes from the accented characters because it exists with both accented and non-accented words. PS - I hope you understand me correctly because for me it is not easy to translate into English accurately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted June 27, 2021 Report Share Posted June 27, 2021 Bernard, On Mac Brush Script MT font has only one variant. No bold font. I checked this font in TextEdit app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
