Skype Mobile ~ East Asian Text Input incompatibility..

I have the Curve 8530 and I use the (Verizon supported) Japanese text input functionality. 
I have been able to use the Japanese text entry successfully for various apps such as Facebook and BBM. 
However, in the IM functionality in the Verizon/Skype Mobile app, entered Japanese text comes out garbled.
For example, お元気ですか。 (ogenki desu ka.) entered in the Skype app will display おおggねですか。
Another attempt, would display it as おgえんきですか。  which is very close to the hiragana of "ogenki desu ka." 
The results every time are random. 
This and the lack of copy-and-paste functionality in Skype IM is causing a lot of problems for me. 
Any insight on this would be appreciated. 
=m

Thanks for the information.  I hope they put this support as an enhancement since Skype does support multi-byte characters.
Also, the copy and paste issue needs to be addressed.  (We need to have copy and paste into the IM window)
tnx

  • Asian Text options on Photoshop CC

    Hello!
    Well, I was working with japanese text on Photoshop CC and when I was going into its formatation, I wasn't able to do the specific asian options because they do not appear. I already enabled them as I saw on the site once, and it worked fine while I was using Photoshop CS6. (by specific options I mean mojikumi/kinsoku)
    Any tips how to solve this?
    Thank you in advance!

    The first thing to check is Preferences > Type and mark "East Asian Text Engine" and restart Photoshop.
    Then in Photoshop's Type menu > Language Options > check East Asian Features   There you should see your Kinsoku/Mojikumi options and other East Asian selections in the Character and Paragraph Panel Menus.
    I'll guess you have suitable Japanese fonts and an IME　It should then work as in this example with the Vertical Type Tool.
    It's been a while since I played with Japanese text, but this should get you in the right direction.
    Another great thing about CC 2014 is that you can install a Japanese Language pack and change your User Interface to Japanese in the Interface Preferences at no extra charge.
    I hope that helps you.

  • Text-input component with auto-complete functionality for mobile

    Hey guys,
    I wonder if there is a text-input component with auto-complete functionality optimized for mobile development with AIR like the one that Android provides natively as you can see here http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/AutoCompleteTextView.html and here http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-autocomplete.html.
    At least I didn't find it in the latest SDK and I think such a component is pretty standard nowadays. Or did I simply overlook it?
    Thank you guys for any advice.
    Regards,
    Thilo

    Hi relaxtraja,
    thanks for your reply!
    I knew that there are a lot of auto-complete scripts on the web. What I was hoping was, that Adobe provides an officially supported auto-complete component optimized for mobile as part of the SDK (like in the Android SDK as I pointed out), but that doesn't seem to be the case. It's sad, because it's an essential part of modern UIs in mobile applications.
    I've already created an auto-complete component by myself based on Spark components and I will end up using it. But I will have to optimize it for mobile applications beforehands. I just think something this essential should be provided by the SDK.
    However, thanks for posting!
    Regards,
    Thilo

  • Can't Input East Asian Language Into Page

    Hello all,
    I'm using an older version of Dreamweaver (4) but it appears
    to have the capability to input East Asian (Japanese) language into
    the page. I have my computer set up to read and write in Japanese.
    I have Dreamweaver set up to allow asian characters, but when I put
    it into the page, it comes up as a garbled mess. Is there something
    else I need to do? I've tried all three of the Japanese encodings,
    and none of them work. I'm running WinXP. Thanks!

    Dreamweaver 4 supports Japanese on a Japanese operating
    system, but not
    on an English one. If I remember correctly, MX 2004 (or it
    might be DW8)
    is the earliest version of Dreamweaver to support East Asian
    languages
    on an English operating system.
    It's a long time since I've done it, but I think you might be
    able to
    get it working on Windows XP by opening Control Panel >
    Regional and
    Language Options, and then selecting the Advanced tab. In the
    section
    labelled "Language for non-Unicode programs", select
    Japanese, and click
    OK. After restarting your computer, Dreamweaver should accept
    Japanese
    input. Be warned, however, that using this setting might make
    the
    display in Dreamweaver and some other programs look rather
    odd.

  • Inputing East Asian languages on ATV2

    I can't type any East Asian languages on apple TV youtube searches. I guess it is possible to use apple remote app with your iphone or ipad and input East Asian languages from those devices? However, I don own an iphone, iPad, or iPod Touch. I bought my ATV2 in Japan and it still won't allow me to input in Japanese characters since the keyboard layout is only in English on ATV2 (even when the language setting on ATV2 is in Japanese). Is there a way to change the keyboard language layout on ATV2? If not, how does Apple even appeal ATV2 in nonWestern markets? Alternatively, is there a software for the PC that works like an apple remote so we can type searches from our computers and have that transmitted to ATV2? It seems odd that you can control ATV2 from iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch but not directly from a computer. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Flo,
    1. I'm not aware how a third-party language engine could be integrated into Latitude/Information Discovery. We certainly don't document it or supported it.
    2. Studio 2.2 or 2.3 cannot use Infront MDEX as a data source. The reason is that the API used by Studio to make calls to the MDEX must be compatible with the interface on that MDEX. So in the case you mention, you would have an MDEX 7 API (in Studio) trying to make calls to an MDEX (InFront) that supports only MDEX 6 API calls. Therefore, the versions of both Studio and the MDEX must always match (as listed in the Install Guide).

  • East Asian Input Problem

    I just updated my phone to OS 7.1 and there is no Chinese input, I searched online about how to install the language and I followed the steps to look for it in the AppLoader but THERE ARENT CHINESE FOR ME to choose in the field of "input", my desktop software is ver 7.1, can anyone tell me how to configure this? or can Blackberry fix it soon? **bleep** angry now

    Hi KUKHY,
    Did you obtain the BlackBerry® Device Software from your wireless provider?  Language packs are included in the software available from your wireless provider. If you wireless provider supports the East Asian Language pack, it should be available in their software bundle.
    Thanks.

  • Vertical Text for East Asian Languages?

    You know how East Asian languages (in my case Japanese), can be written vertically? They go down from top to bottom, in columns that go from right-to- left. Does anyone know is Pages supports this?

    You know how East Asian languages (in my case Japanese), can be written vertically? They go down from top to bottom, in columns that go from right-to- left. Does anyone know is Pages supports this?
    No, Pages does not. You would need to use MS Office, NeoOffice, OpenOffice, or LightwayText/iText Pro (plus the Japanese version of Adobe InDesign).

  • Displaying East Asian Characters in Safari?

    Hello, I am learning Japanese and Korean. I have apps for the iPhone that display Hangul (Korean), and Hiragana/Katakana/Kanji(Japanese). When I am texting, I can view and input characters in Korean and Japanese. When I am in Safari, I am unable to view characters that are in these East Asian Languages on certain pages. google.co.jp works, but babelfish does not. There are other websites, but these were the two that I was using as a test. In babelfish, the translation box just comes up empty. Any ideas? Do I just need to use another translation site?
    Thanks in advance!

    Do I just need to use another translation site?
    Perhaps. The best is certainly

  • TextInput control misbehaves when using the East-Asian fonts

    I am a little curious about this issue and I would like to get some help from our community. The issue is about fonts when using East Asian languages.I have all East-Asian language installed on my computer (WIN SERV 2003)and I let my flex application to use the local system font(font is not embedded) to get the Japanese character. When I start typing the characters into the Flex textinput control everything works properly as expected until I reach the boundary of the textinput control, the characters gets displayed outside the textinput and I would need to press the enter key to get the fonts inside the textinput . Have anyone experienced such problems when using fonts for Japanese, Chinese etc? Refer the image for more clarity.Please help

    This is the expected behavior for Japanese in my experience. The reason, I think, is that for Japanese characters the text input process has two steps. First the basic phonetic characters are entered and then these are selectively changed into kanji characters which can shorten the final input text. So it makes sense to calculate the textbox height after the text has been finally input, not while it is still being input. The enter key is the event that signals the text should be submitted. I don't know about Chinese, but for Japanese, this is the standard way of handling text input in my experience.

  • IE,East Asian encodings

    Hi to all!Problem:I've a JSP page which sends text to servlet.Servlet writes received from JSP text to the file and performs converting to UTF-8.With FireFox it works fine(text properly converts to UTF-8),but with IE 6.0 I have troubles-does not work converting to UTF from East Asian launguages(Chinese encodings gb2312,gb18030,Korean,Japanese-in the file I can see only "?" symlols instead of text)-but with Chinese Big5 encoding works nice:-/ Also I've detect that IE does not send "accept-charset" header (FireFox sends it always) .I think that code of my servlet properly because converting works fine with text received from FireFox.Have anybody here similar problem?How I can solve it?Thanks:)

    All work fine in IE and FireFox if Unicode (UTF-8) encoding was selected.
    This is my code:
    FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("test.txt");

              out.write(request.getParameter("text"));
              out.flush();

  • Itunes 10: East Asian languages displayed as boxes in certain areas

    I just got a new computer, and moved all my music to my new computer, and installed Itunes 10. But for some reason, if I try to edit my song's info (Right click on song, 'Get Info') the titles and everything that's in another language displays as boxes. The song title itself when in Itunes displays properly, but only in the 'Get Info' box does all my Chinese, Japanese, and Korean song information turn into little boxes. It's not my computer's problem, as it displays all these languages properly. The problem lies with Itunes, but none of the help topics really do anything. Can anyone help me out please?
    If you didn't really understand my explanation, here are some pictures:
    [IMG]http://i53.tinypic.com/35n0i02.jpg[/IMG]
    [IMG]http://i55.tinypic.com/ojo1i0.jpg[/IMG]
    As you can see, boxes in the info editing areas, but everywhere else, it displays properly.
    Thank you for your help!

    In case anyone else comes across this problem -
    It turns out that the fontconfig.properties approach is a bit of a red herring (at least in this example).
    I've resolved the issue by adding a method to my bean to specify a different font for english and chinese language users. For chinese language users I specify Font = "Simsun-18030" and for each AWT component explicitly setFont( new Font( "Simsun-18030", Font.PLAIN, 14 ) ) Now AWT components displaying chinese characters are rendered correctly with no need to modify any config files on the client PC.
    - NB font appears smaller for pointsize than english fonts.
    - Using "SimSun" as the font also works but text in english is not displayed very clearly
    - On windows you must install east asian language support for this to work (Start -Run - intl.cpl - languages tab)

  • Adding East Asian Language Pack

    [I stupidly posted this in the Bold forum.  Reposting here, where this topic obviously belongs.]
    Hi, all,
    I've read the BlackBerry KB on how to install the East Asian Language packs on my BlackBerry.  But I am still confused.  The directions say:
    Open BlackBerry Desktop Manager.
    Connect the BlackBerry smartphone.
    Select Applications.
    From the Install/Remove Application screen select East Asian Language and Input Support.
    Click Start. The installation will begin.
    But clicking the "Applications" button brings up a window that manages third-party applications, not BlackBerry applications and extensions.  It shows all of the third-party applications I have installed (Evernote, Google Maps, WhatsApp, etc.).
    There is a "+" button on the left of this applications window, but that brings me to a Finder window to search for files on my Mac.  There is a "Start" button, but pressing that without changing checkboxes next to the applications raises the following error: "BlackBerry Desktop Software failed to validate your BlackBerry device update.  Aborting install due to validation failure.  Some packages contain unsatisfied dependencies."
    So, it seems that the KB instructions are incomplete.  Exactly where do I see the "East Asian Language and Input Support" option on my Mac BlackBerry Desktop Sofware?  Perhaps I am supposed to use Finder to browse to some location on my Mac select an East Asian Pack file?

    Hello drummonds,
    Is your Mac connected to an internet connection?
    Is your device unlocked and you are using a different carrier than that of the one branded to your device?
    Backup your device data and reinstall your software as shown in KB19915; once the reload completes try going back into the Add/Remove applications tab.
    Let me know how you make out.

  • TextArea and TextInput on mobile device the text disappears and works fine on desktop

    I'm developing a mobile app with a view that contains 1 Text Area, 1 Text Input and a group of 3 buttons. The app runs well in Desktop mode ( Run & Debug ), but when run in an android device ( Sony Tablet S) when the view is loaded,  the text (text property set at design or runtime)  "flashes" and disappear, if I change the device orientation of the tablet (phisically) the text draws correctly and don't disappear, even if you return to the original orientation. Also, if I pop-up a message (SkinnablePopUpContainer) in the same view, the text appears, and when I close the pop-up the text disappears again.
    Is this an identified bug ? ... is there a workaround ? ... I tried to set visible property to false and true and sometimes it works and sometimes not at random.
    Thank you for you help.

    UPDATE : if I set Focus=true the text appears. I think that the text should be there even if I don't set focus.
    This simple code when run in the device (Sony Tablet S) doesn't work as expected ... ( the text in the textbox dissapears, and if you change orientation appeears).
