Search Requires an Extra Space for Foreign Language

I have a field in the index that has both english and far east characters.  When I do a search, I append the * suffix operator.  I have no problem getting results for "whic*" - it brings returns back docs starting with these characters;
however, whenever I search for foreign characters, I have to append a space before * in order to get back results.
I am using the 2014-10-20-Preview api version.  Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

Hi Janusz,
I ran these in fiddler, you just need to substitute <your search svc>.  I pulled out some random article title/source from the google and china news sites.
**** NOTE ***
I also found a bug with a GET that didn't honor the + operator, see example at the end.  I don't know if it's something I didn't setup correctly.

  • Any advice for FOREIGN language lyrics?

    Pearlyrics can only search for English language lyrics .. is there an equivalent for foreign languages such as Chinese and French?

    Is there any way to change Apple's default fonts for Greek and Hebrew into these other fonts?
    No.
    But word processors often have features like "styles" where you set the font, if that helps. Nisus Writer has a system of preferences where the font can be set for each language.

  • Auto Speech Alignment for foreign language dubbing

    I just watched the excellent "How to use Auto Speech Alignment in Audition" video on Adobe TV, and noticed that he mentions that ASA can be utilized to add foreign language dubs to a video. I find myself in that very process at the moment, and would really like to hear how ASA can help, but all the video mentions is the fact that it supposedly can.

    I suggest also using the "Comments" section for the page that the video is on as well.  This may get more eyes here, but it _should_ get the eyes of the video's producer there.
    Anyways, the technology, does use spectral information in getting the alignment.  This is how it can achieve better results sometimes when compared to older existing technologies for automatic alignment.  For example, a waveform envelope may not be able to tell sibilance from a vowel sound when comparing an overdub vs the original field audio.  However, this is easy when looking at the spectral information and it can achieve a tighter alignment for that.
    That is, of course, assuming that the same words are being spoken in a similar way between the two clips.
    As for two different languges, I think it is a "Your Mileage May Vary" situation.  I think the intent of the suggestion is probably hoping that this feature can save you time if you wanted to get better lip-sync.  However, one can easily imagine that if the dubbed audio is stretched or squeezed too far that it (A) won't sound natrual, but more importantly (B) disrupts the performance of the voice actor.  On the other hand, if it is just doing micro adjustments it can make the timing better match that of the original mouth movements because it is making it match the timing of the original audio.
    I would suggest people with actual real-world content to try it out and preferebly post a video of your results (either positive or negative).  That would be a good way to further the discussion.

  • Problem with charsets for foreign languages

    hi
    i have a problem with a webapplication
    in my webapplication i have some code that gets data from a webpage of another webapplication. This other web application can use many foreign languages
    the problem is that those foreign languages contain some special characters, and those special chars aren't displayed the right way
    this is the code to get the data from the other webapp
    private static StringBuffer getContent(String sUrl) throws MalformedURLException, IOException  {
            StringBuffer content = new StringBuffer();
            URL url = new URL(sUrl);
            HttpURLConnection httpURLConn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
            httpURLConn.setRequestProperty("charset", "utf-8");
            BufferedReader buffReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(httpURLConn.getInputStream()));
            String inputLine;
            while ((inputLine = buffReader.readLine()) != null) {
                content.append("\n" + inputLine);
            return content;
        }as you see , i tried to set the encoding to UTF-8 but that did not solve the problem

  • Virtual keyboard on Q10 for foreign languages?

    Hey there,
    On the Q10, when typing we have the ability to switch between different languages; however, if you are typing in Chinese or Hebrew for instance you don't see the letter/charecters on a keyboard. Is there a way to have a keyboard displayed for each language when switching to a language other than English?
    Thanks,

    Hello wissdd01
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Can you please confirm you are looking to change the language of the input text? As the BlackBerry Q10 smartphone has a physical keyboard and cannot be easily changed.
    To change the input language of your BlackBerry Q10 smartphone please select the following:
    Settings>Language and Input>Language
    Settings>Language and Input>Region
    I look forward to your reply wissdd01

  • HT4847 I purchased extra space for icloud, but it is not changing!

    I am trying to back up pics and vids from my iPad 2 to my computer (PC) via iCloud.  I purchased an extra 10GB, but it didn't show up! I then did it again (will probably get charged 40.00 now!) and it STILL didn't change!  Only 69 pics are showing up in my photo stream, which I am sure must be because they didn't upgrade my storage space!  Who do I contact about this? 

    ICloud storage is for backups or documents.
    It is online storage.
    It can not be used as local storage, it will not increase the amount of data you can put on the ipad.

  • Does a vlan require a extra host for VLSM

    Basically I'm using the IP 192.168.0.0/16 on a network I'm making.
    I have:
    Staff: 250 hosts
    Support: 30 hosts
    Admin: 8 hosts
    Servers: 5 hosts
    HR: 50 hosts
    Do i need to basically add 1 on to each so staff is 251 hosts.
    I know we need to use a default gateway for VLAN.
    I'm going to be using a 4 vlans and servers will be left as it is.

    Leo
    Your response would be quite appropriate if you read the first line of the original post and then composed your response without reading further. But if you read further and especially when you get to this line
    I'm going to be using a 4 vlans and servers will be left as it is
    then it becomes very evident that treating it as a single network space /16 is not the appropriate response.
    Lee
    I am not clear where you are going with this statement
    Do i need to basically add 1 on to each so staff is 251 hosts. As I think about how you ask the question I wonder if this is an attempt to include/add an address for the gateway for each vlan.
    But if you think carefully and clearly about the situation that you describe it becomes a series of questions about classical subnetting:
    - if Staff needs 250 hosts then what subnet is large enough (but not larger) to fit 250 hosts? answer is /24. (with 254 usable host addresses)
    - if Support needs 30 hosts then what subnet is large enough (but not larger) to fit 30 hosts? answer is /27. (with 30 usable host addresses) But if we also need to allow an address for the gateway (if there really are 30  Support hosts) the the address requirement becomes 31 and the subnet becomes a /26 (with 62 host addresses)
    - if Admin needs 8 hosts then what subnet is large enough(but not larger) to fit 8 hosts? answer is /28. (with 14 usable host addresses) note that this may be a bit tricky since a /29 actually has 8 addresses but if you reserve an address for the subnet and an address for the broadcast then it is no longer large enough for 8 hosts.
    - if Server needs 5 hosts then what subnet is large enough (but not larger) to fit 5 hosts? answer is /29. (with 6 usable host addresses)
    - if HR needs 50 hosts then what subnet is large enough (but not larger) to fit 50 hosts? answer is /26. (with 62 usable hosts addresses)

  • VERY green  user needs translation for "foreign" language you all speak

    Well Ive read through the forums for a while now (had my imac G4 for about 2 months). Ive created numerous dvd's using slideshows (and books) from iPhoto and exporting them to iDVD 6. So far I am doing a reasonable job with the very limited knowledge I have.
    My problem is this... I want to know more in order to make more professional presentations, and by reading the forums I am attempting to do that, but you are all speaking a language I just don't understand! I have problems with the quality of transferring projects from iMovie to iDVD and whilst reading some solutions on here NONE of them make sense to me. I have to have toast??? I have to encode something or other etc etc. How do I ensure my computer is burning at 2x and not 8x?
    When I say VERY green user... I mean VERY green. Is there ANYWHERE I could get information about how to make better presentations, how to improve the quality etc in plain speak? What else do I need on my computer to make iMovie and iDVD work better for me? Is there better software that I could use?
    Any help you could give me would be most appreciated. But please, keep it simple for my (apparently) very simple mind.

    Another question here... when i used disk facility to burn the project, there didnt seem to be any option to burn it at a particular rate? Again, what am I doing wrong??
    Follow these instructions:
    File/Save as Disc Image...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=164927
    This will isolate any encoding/burning issues you may encounter. Once the disc image is created, double-click the .img and burn the virtual disc that should appear on your desktop, using Toast to burn the DVD. Disk Utility to burn the .img file. Usually, you can select a burning speed in Disk Utility.
    There are variations to this process based on which OS X you are using...
    Open Disk Utility (in Utilities folder in Applications folder), click on the virtual disc (maybe the .img) in the left-hand window. Click the Burn icon. A new window should drop down and your SuperDrive tray will open after clicking the Burn icon. Insert a recordable DVD. (Verbatim DVD-R preferred by me.) Click the Close button. Wait. Select a burn speed. If you hold your mouse cursor over the pop-up it says: "Select a slower speed to work around burn failures," so select 4x or slower for best results. Then click the Burn button.
    -->If the virtual disk selection won't allow you to click the Burn icon, use the .img file instead. This may have changed in 10.3.9 and did change in Tiger.
    Also, you can use DVD Player to play the virtual disk to check your iDVD project before burning to DVD. Launch DVD Player. File/Open VIDEO_TS (Open DVD Media... in Player 4.6). Find the VIDEO_TS folder and open that. (The audio folder is for DVD-Audio disks.)

  • Instead of accents on letters for foreign language, I get strange symbols.

    me email messages in French have strange symbols instead of accents. How can Firefox correct that?

    Check the encoding and make sure that you are using the correct Unicode or 8 bit Windows or Western encoding.

  • People Search requirement in Sharepoint 2013

    Hello Everyone
    In user profile services, I have created connection, which synchronize the Active directory data to sharepoint.
    Then I have done full synchronization. I created enterprise search center site, when i type user name in search, nothing comes up.
    Does people search requires to create mysite for all users?
    Thanks

    Hi Swetha,
    Yes, you are right.
    On people search results page, when we click the user picture, it will redirect to its personal page. So people search does
    not require my site, but when you click the user, it’s trying to access the my site.
    Best Regards.

  • Script for Required fields acting strange on extra spaces at end of Name/Description

    Found this script on this forum, which I added to my submit button.
    var emptyFields = [];
    for (var i=0; i<this.numFields; i++) {
         var f= this.getField(this.getNthFieldName(i));
         if (f.type!="button" && f.required ) {
              if ((f.type=="text" && f.value=="") || (f.type=="checkbox" && f.value=="Off")) emptyFields.push(f.name);
    if (emptyFields.length>0) {
         app.alert("Error! You must fill in the following fields:\n" + emptyFields.join("\n"));
    Great script but the ERROR! popup was not coming up until I went into InDesign and removed extra spaces after "(g)" Description and Names.
    I am new at this, can someone let me know of any rules for naming these fields such as using underscores, or any other illegal chacters.

    Jeff,
    The SQL in the script file is below.  To be honest, I have reduced it down to a simple select from dual and it still puts extra spaces at the end of the single line.
    col ord noprint
    spool test.csv
    SELECT  ' ' ord,
      'ZONE_ORDER_NUMBER'||','||
      'ZONE_NAME'||','||

  • Why can't Preview search in a foreign language?

    I have a long .pdf document in Russian but find, as in the past, that words placed in Preview's search bar always get no hits.
    If Preview can display a text in a foreign language, why can't it search for words in that language?

    Try Adobe Reader instead of Preview.
    The basic problem is that the pdf format is not reliable for searching, and sometimes even copy/pasting non-Latin text.  Depending on how it is produced, the internal representation of the text can easily become useless garbage.

  • Maps search nearby in foreign language

    last night, i just updated my e90 and my girlfriend's n95 maps application as soon as i found out that have a new update. turns out to be more problems than a blessing.
    first of all, all my previously downloaded maps have to be deleted and redownloaded again with the new maps loader. the new menus in maps have been swapped around that it tooks some time getting used to. then we found a bug beta testers definitely missed.
    if my maps setting have set never use network, these menus are working fine:
    find place >> nearby
    or
    use this place >> search nearby
    but as soon as i turn use network back to when needed, these menus appear in a foreign language what looks to be german. hey com'on i don't read german. this happens exactly identically for both my e90 and my gf's n95. so its not phone specific problem, and it happened to other e90 users in forums. i also know this is not phone region problem bcoz my product code is singapore, and my gf's n95 is hk. so if it was region specific language should it show up in chinese instead? so **bleep**?! i used to love using map to search stuff, now i don't even feel like touching it until it is fixed assuming it will ever be fixed

    I can confirm that. Nokia screwed that. They are in German indeed. This update should not be released.Message Edited by simcard on 15-Sep-200706:46 PM

  • Foreign Language in Print Dialog for Officejet K5400

    HP Officejet Pro K5400 on Windows XP 
    Although the tabs and the first screens in the print dialog box are in English, suddenly there is a foreign language in the dialog boxes under Properties.  For example, under features (English tab), the Paper Type is Almindelgt papir and the Paper Source is Valg automatisk.  Photo fix is Fra, Grundlaeggende, or Fuld.
    I have searched online and found instructions for changing an HP dll file for several printer models but not this one.
    Uninstalling and reinstalling from the CD or as a fresh download from HP did not fix it.  
    I suspect it has something to do with new installation of Adobe Reader X, but uninstalling it did not fix it. 
    I called HP tech support and was told to call Microsoft.
    I would appreciate any suggestions.
    Thanks!
