Incorrect Scandinavic alphabets #26671

Closed simppakheikki closed 6 months ago

simppakheikki commented 10 months ago

Did you test the latest bugfix-2.1.x code?

Yes, and the problem still exists.

Bug Description

Scandinavic alphabets ä and ö (and very likely å) don't appear properly. I get strange, possibly Asian letters, which replace Scandinavic alphabets. It also looks like this affects on the alphabet following the Scandinavic letter. I already tried to search the problem but it showed to be too time consuming task since Marlin code is rather complicated. I wonder if this has something to do with this issue #26379 .

Bug Timeline

No response

Expected behavior

I expect to see a finnish word "Lämpötila". This also affects on other words similarly.

Actual behavior

20240113_204656

In the image above, letters substrings "äm" and "öt" are missing from "Lämpötila". This is only one example of this problem. Other texsts having letters ä or ö has same problem in other texts.

Assets for these displays don't have any accented characters, only english set. Did you really try bugfix? iirc code was fixed to convert all accented characters to regular ones.

simppakheikki commented 10 months ago

Yes I tried. It won't even compile without giving [missing binary operator before token "("] preprocessing errors. Those errors were even more difficult to solve.

EvilGremlin commented 10 months ago

"missing binary operator" is becasue you used wrong config version. Well, i guess accents were only fixed for native displays. Use english

simppakheikki commented 10 months ago

After some digging I finally found right config files but problem still persists. But if it is caused by the screen, there is nothing to do. I usually prefer Finnish version if it available but I didn't know it won't work for DWIN displays.

EvilGremlin commented 10 months ago

If it's DACAI you can try swapping font.ttf, if it's DWIN/DGUS - you also can try do dive deeper and convert the font with DGUS editor. Surefire compromise is to just change string by screen type https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin/pull/4597/files
