As a reminder: The correct UTF8 hexcodes for 'üäö' are C3BC, C3A4 und C3B6, not DC C4 D6, see for example https://www.charset.org/utf-8! DC C4 D6 are the ANSI hexcodes +---+--------+-----------------+|STR|ANSI-HEX|UTF8-HEX     ...

... cVar1 doesn't change, that's OK! Editing also works, the encoding is and remains UTF8!: https://i.postimg.cc/1RdqQnB0/Screenshot-2023-10-12-091706.png --------------------------------- As a reminder: The correct UTF8 ...

Probably the encoding is already changed to ANSI before the TGet() was activated!?

Yes.

We will discuss how you and other programmers would like the behavior to be.

I noticed that all hexcodes in your example are ANSI and that there are NO UTF8 2-byte hexcodes!

Probably the encoding is already changed to ANSI before the TGet() was activated!?

Maybe it is the text object to display the hexcode directly?

I'll test it tomorrow

I am running the code I posted.
I do not see an problems here.
Are you using FWH2307 please?

nothing has changed!

If I put an 'a' at the end of the given characters, then the encoding changes to ANSI:

But when editing, the encoding switches! Please try this: #include "fivewin.ch"function Main()   local oDlg   local oGet   local cVar1 := "üäö"   FW_SetUnicode( .T. )   DEFINE DIALOG oDlg SIZE 300, 300 PIXEL TRUEP...

yes, so far everything is in order.
But when editing, the encoding switches!

Please wait for my next post.

Ok, I will wait, it is not very urgent. In some places I have switched to TEdit(), but would like to return to TGet().

I copied your program as it is and built with FWH2307 and this is what I got.


However, there is a lot more to discuss about TGet and Umlauts.
Please wait for my next post.

super, ok

Looking into this.
Please wait a little

Dear Mr. Nageswara Rao,

can you confirm the unwanted change of the encoding?
If so, do you plan to correct this behavior?

Many greetings
Frank

Yes, the encoding switch from UTF8 to ANSI

UTF-8 to Unicode

Utf-8 is Unicode
Probably you mean ANSI to UTF8.

UTF8 encoding fails in TGet()! #include "fivewin.ch"function Main()   local oDlg   local oGet   local cVar1 := "üäö"   REQUEST HB_CODEPAGE_UTF8   HB_CDPSELECT( "UTF8" )   FW_SetUnicode( ...
