Turkish Characters

[emreires]

How can display turkish characters in imgui?

[ocornut]

Hello,
You need to load a font with the glyph ranges used for Turkish (I think just loading 0x0020 to 0x01FF should be enough if your have the right font).
Please read misc/fonts/README.txt (EDIT 2019: now in docs/FONTS.txt)

[emreires]

I have right font but it doesnt work :/

[emreires]

Can you give example source code?

[ocornut]

Apologies, I gave you the wrong answer. The right answer is: Sorry but #1586.

[emreires]

:D uh, no.

I'm not a paster or cheater.
Im doing a simple 2d game, lol

[ocornut]

Please read the documentation. If you say something doesn't work, please provide proper repro code. We can't help you if we don't know what you have tried.

• load a font that contains turkish characters
• when loading the font you need to specify the glyph range
• use the style editor, inside "fonts" to confirm that the glyphs you need are loaded
• make sure you pass utf-8 strings, which you can do in C++11 by using u8"Selam Dünya"

@drbiricik: Not sure if this can help you, but for all these kind of problems, I'd also make sure that all the source files I'm using are saved using the UTF8 encoding.

I don't know what's the default encoding in Turkey (probably UTF8 already) so I don't know if this can help you or not! 😒

Also I think you should add the code you're using to display the text...

[ice1000]

No, @Flix01 this is not related to encodings -- his encoding is correct.

[Flix01]

@ice1000: OK then...

[drbiricik]

Turkish characters could not be printed on the menu. Why?

[ocornut]

String literals in c++ needs to be prefixed with u8 to be encoded as utf-8. So “xxx” should be u8”xxx”. Otherwise the exact encoding would be determined by the compiler and probably follow a local codepage which is not the same as utf-8 encoding.

[drbiricik]

it worked. thank you.

[emartisoft]

if you are using vs c++ compiler than instead of u8 string literal can also use this.

#pragma execution_character_set("utf-8")
....
 ImGui::Button("Tıkla bakalım öçşiğüÖÇŞİĞÜ");
....
