Hello,

I am developing Windows App in VC8.0 using Xtremetoolkit version 9.81. I have unicode folder paths and folders under my volumes. When I try to view these from explorer I can see them clearly. However when I use my application tree I cannot. I am using a loop to populate my tree and list items.

here is sample code:
TCHAR szBuff[MAX_PATH]
GetName(lpsf, lpi,SHGDN_INFOLDER , szBuff);
lvi.pszText = szBuff;

I can succesfully see Indian, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese characters in my tree/list. However I cannot see these certain characters (also some similary polish characters): "Русский.txt" Can somebody help.

Thanks,

Sachin Modak.

Hello,

It seems like I just had to change the tree and list view text fonts. That seem to have fixed the problem. Here is the code

HFONT appFont;
appFont = CreateFont(16, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, _T("Tahoma"));
PostMessage( WM_SETFONT, (WPARAM)(HFONT)appFont );

Now the problem being, I have about 20 languages ranging from Japanese, Simple Chinese, Couple indian dialects and major european languages. The font size of 16 makes it look a little bigger than the classical windows explorer tree view.

Is this a limitation?

Thanks.
Sachin Modak.

It will display polish characters right, however it will show some indian dialects as if in some sort of a patch. a label sort of.
