Bug: FlashFXP v3.4 Beta 6 won't display Korean language properly.

Flash FXP v3.3.6 (build 1125) BETA
Windows XP Professional x64 Edition w/ Korean MUI

While there hasn't been any problem with Korean characters in previous FlashFXP's, new beta 6 version of FlashFXP suffers when with Korean version of Windows XP.

Screenshot shows what's happening pretty well.

Options > Preferences > Display > Colors & Fonts

Please make sure that your fonts are using the correct characterset (Script)

The fonts were reset a few builds ago and they may no longer be configured to properly display Korean.

Windows automatically choose linked international fonts when Western European only font is used. For example, when Tahoma font is chosen, Windows uses Gulim font when viewing Korean.

However, the latest FlashFXP does not choose substitutional fonts accordingly. When Western European only font is used, FlashFXP has problem displaying non-Western European language.

I hope this gets changed before the final release.

What if you change the flashfxp font to "MS Sans Serif" ?

I think I figured out the problem, I will be sending you a private msg shortly with a updated build for testing.

bigstar,

Thanks for the quickest response.
Yes I tried the updated build, and here's what happened.

1. When I choose well-known Western European only fonts such as Tahoma and MS San Serif fonts, FlashFXP displays Korean properly with linked fonts.

2. However, when with other Western-European only fonts, such as Garamond and Segoe UI fonts, FlashFXP does NOT display Korean properly.

I did try above mentioned fonts (Garamond, Segoe UI) in other application to see if they display Korean correctly with linked fonts, and yes they do.

Thank you.
