B4J Question Hebrew letters not shown in b4j applications ?

[derez]

One of my b4j applications users has this problem of Hebrew letters:

Any idea how to fix it ?
The window platform is configured for Hebrew and other applications show it correctly.

Edit: When I run it from b4j, it is the same problem. The Fx scene shows the letters correctly.

Are you sure the font that you are using supports Hebrew characters?

 

[derez]

In fx scene builder it is defined as system font. In windows the font that is used knows hebrew.
I suspect a font problem but don't know how to find what is missing. I'll try re-installing java.

You can try to set a specific font instead of the default font.

It works for me too but not in one computer...

According to the following thread on Stack Overflow it could be the version of the font you are using.

This link seems to talk about the same problem and I believe it should solve it.
Thank you sonicmayne !
I'll know only next week if it is solved.

I see that if I change the system font of a node in the fx scene builder to something else, like Arial, the problem disappears.
Does anybody know how to change the font to all nodes ?

 

[Erel]

In the built-in designer you can select all the nodes with the Font property and set it.

You can change it in your code with:

For Each n As Node In MainForm.RootPane.GetAllViewsRecursive
   n.Style = n.Style & "-fx-font-family: Arial;"
Next

Or alternatively external css file

.root{
    -fx-font: 12px Arial;
}

 

[derez]

Erel: the design is already in fx so I have to change it.
I decided to invest an hour an change all the nodes' font in the scene builder. It is working now.
Thank you.
Daestrum: I saw your solution in the net but didn't know how to implement. how do I add a css file ?

 

[Daestrum]

MainForm.Stylesheets.Add(File.GetUri(File.DirAssets, "your_style_sheet.css"))

create the file and add to files tab
