Cyrillic symbos, UTF-8 and TouchGFX

Hi,

Did you set Text ->Typography-> WildCard ranges as below for textArea1Buffer ?

Hope this helps..

No.

This is my options. Without any effect

Have you selected a font supporting Cyrillic? You should found some online (ttf files) and add them in TouchGFX/assets/fonts if you have not found one. (Watchout, if this is for a commercial project make sure you have the license for the font)

EDIT: Verdana actually supports Cyrillic, I did not know. But if you intend to add other languages or if you want to use another font for your text, this is the way to do it if not found in Designer.

Check your generated files to see if those unicodes have even been geenrated. For instance, here's generated/fonts/src/Font_Verdana_10_4bpp_0.cpp with the pixel data for a single glyph 0x003F. If touchgfx cannot find your glyphs in the generated files then it will display "?" (if you chose a fallback character).

#include <touchgfx/hal/Types.hpp>
 
FONT_GLYPH_LOCATION_FLASH_PRAGMA
KEEP extern const uint8_t unicodes_verdana_10_4bpp_0[] FONT_GLYPH_LOCATION_FLASH_ATTRIBUTE =
{
 // Unicode: [0x003F, ]
 0xD2, 0xCE, 0x03, 0x21, 0x50, 0x0C, 0x00, 0x30, 0x0C, 0x00, 0xC1, 0x05, 0x00, 0x4D, 0x00, 0x00,
 0x0C, 0x00, 0x00, 0x02, 0x00, 0x00, 0x0F, 0x00
};

I work with Cyrillic as follows

touchgfx::Unicode::UnicodeChar buffer[100]; 
 Unicode::fromUTF8((const uint8_t*)"тек�?т", buffer, 100);
 btn.setWildcard(buffer);

Hi @EEuge​ .. did you solve the problem ? i am facing the same issue as you.. in touch gfx words in Cyrillic are working.. but when I try to do this

 const char* parArea4[5][6] = {
 		 { "Preheating",
 								"Ready",
									" ",
									"Baking",
									"Extra time",
									"Extra time?"
 },
 						 { 	"Preriscaldo",
 							 "Pronto",
								 " ",
									 "Cottura",
									 "Extra time",
									"Extra time?"
 							 },
								 { 	"Prechauffage",
								 "Pret",
						 " ",
									 "Cuisson",
									 "Extra time",
									"Extra time?"
								 },
								 { 	"Предварительный нагрев",
									"Pronto",
								 " ",
									 "Выпечка",
									 "Extra time",
									 "Extra time?"
								 },
								 { 	"Preriscaldo",
									"Pronto",
						 " ",
									"Cottura",
								 "Extra time",
									"Extra time?"
								 }
 };
 
uint8_t tipolingua = 3; //cyrillic 
textArea4.setColor(touchgfx::Color::getColorFrom24BitRGB(236, 209, 18));//extra time?
				Unicode::strncpy(textArea4Buffer, parArea4[tipolingua][5], Unicode::strlen(parArea4[tipolingua][5])+1);
				textArea4.invalidate();

on the display i see a lot of question marks??

How can i fix it ?

Thanks

Hi @EEuge​ .. were you able to solve the issue ? How did you do?
