Summary: Hebrew text: input impossible Product: Wine Version: 0.9.45. Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-gui AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: winehq-bugs@dotancohen.com
Created an attachment (id=8160) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=8160) Shows "Swedish vowels" that display on the screen instead of Hebrew when typing in Wine. The real Hebrew was typed on Windows.
When typing Hebrew in applications under wine, I get different results with different programs. No program is actually able to enter Hebrew text.
MS Notepad: The first letter shows up fine. All subsequent keypresses display the same letter on the screen. Moving the cursor to the first letter and deleting it transforms the other letters into what they should be. So typing Shin-Lamed-Vav-MemSofit shows Shin-Shin-Shin-Shin on the screen. Backing up and deleting the first Shin leaves Lamed-Vav-MemSofit on the screen. Note that the letters do appear right to left (so the text is readable) however it is left-aligned. I can successfully paste Hebrew text copied from native Linux applications and it displays fine.
Ilium Software ListPro: I imported my ListPro database from Windows. Hebrew text typed on Windows displays fine, but I cannot add new text. All text that I type in Wine displays in the wrong encoding, it looks like Swedish vowels. See attachment: the Hebrew was typed in Windows, and the "Swedish vowels" is text that I tried to add in Wine. I can successfully paste Hebrew text copied from native Linux applications.
For reference, this is my setup:
ubuntu@ubuntu-laptop:~$ wine --version wine-0.9.45 ubuntu@ubuntu-laptop:~$ locale LANG=C LANGUAGE=he_IL:he:en_GB:en LC_CTYPE="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_TIME="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_NAME="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_ALL=he_IL.UTF-8
Thanks.
