Unicode character is not showing properly in Android

shariful2011 commented 6 years ago

I am trying to make one Android app with DKLang(truely the best component) for Unicode language. Language Id is 2117 (Bangla). In Windows all text property and constant are showing properly but in Android it's not showing properly. Please check screenshot.

For windows: http://prntscr.com/krrfvd For Android: http://prntscr.com/krrgik

I am using Delphi Tokyo 10.2.3

This looks like the font you are using on Android doesn't support all of the Bangla characters. Try to find a font that supports the full Bangla character set. You may need to install one for the app.

I am using Google Translated text, just copy the translated text and put them lng file using DKLang Translation Editor.

bjmillerpa commented 6 years ago

That is not where the problem is. If the translated text works on Windows, it is good. That text does not change when you put it on Android. It is the final rendering of the text that is the issue and it appears to me that it is simply the font. The problem (as far as I can tell) is that the font you are using on the Android device does not support all Bangla characters.

I am not using any special font in Android, just the lang file.

bjmillerpa commented 6 years ago

Exactly. You need to find and use a special font. Not all fonts support all Unicode characters. In fact, I don't think there is a single font that supports all Unicode characters, it would be too big. You will need to find one that supports Bangla completely and use it. Try Googling "android bangla font" and see what you can find.

How can I install it? Do I have to use FMX.FontGlyphs.Android for installing this?

bjmillerpa commented 6 years ago

I don't know. You'll have to Google it.

Did you have any luck with this issue? I am having the similar issue with Malayalam font. I am using a UTF8 encoded string. I tried with multiple unicode fonts as well thinking it might be a rendering issue as it seems to have all the unicode code points in the string. It just not seem to render the combining marks...

bjmillerpa commented 4 years ago

Sorry, no. I haven't done any Android work in a couple of years.

Thanks,I used Twebbrowser as the font rendering library for that seems to be supporting Indian scripts. But it is a dirty solution...Regards,Vinod.Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone. -------- Original message --------From: bjmillerpa notifications@github.com Date: 15/12/19 3:52 AM (GMT+12:00) To: yktoo/dklang dklang@noreply.github.com Cc: coderdoniv coderdoniv@gmail.com, Comment comment@noreply.github.com Subject: Re: [yktoo/dklang] Unicode character is not showing properly in Android (#24) Sorry, no.
