[Bug 15065] New: tooltips show garbage, while menus are correct

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15065

Summary: tooltips show garbage, while menus are correct
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.3
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

In a few programs (actually, games) written for Japanese codepage,
I've seen a strange effect.
When I run in LANG=ja_JP.utf8, menus are shown correctly,
but in a few places tooltips show garbage.

In windows, using AppLocale, it works correctly.

I think I'll change the wording:
in a few places, that have tooltips, those tooltips show garbage.

Are any of these games available for download?

Does native comctl32 help?

Not really, but I've found a demo showing
similar problem.
It the 114MB download on http://sc-crg.com/katalog/rasen2/index.html.
To see the problem, start the game and hover mouse over game's menubar
(not window's, I'm talking about the skip/auto/log line).

Please, don't complain about my taste, as:
1. It's not really in my taste
2. How could this even be a taste, if I don't really know 
the language ?

And on that note:
I run this using LANG=ja_JP.utf8, but I think it would be better,
if it would be possible to make this a wine-specific setting,
IOW make the app in wine run in that locale, but the wine itself
in system default.

And WINEDLLOVERRIDES="comdlg32,comctl32=n" doesn't change a thing.

When I look at those broken tooltips,
I think they are CP932, but printed as a single byte encoding
(probably latin1 or latin2, whatever they are called on Windows
(the second is probably CP1250)).

OK, it's invalid after all.
