non english symbols in flash tours - how to do?
Posted: 5 Nov 2009 at 15:33 GMT
i`ve been doing the flash tours in tourweaver and 3dvista show and that tours included cyrilic text. But when i published them text(cyrilic) does not shows correctly.
What should i do ?
(Putting the charset code at index.html does not help)

This won't help with your Cyrillic entries but will explain what Tourweaver software accepts and expects.

Tourweaver supports only English A-Z a_z 0-9
No non English characters and no symbols, accents or parenthesis. It has always been that way. Should you introduce any of these non English characters or symbols it will cause the tour to fail at publishing or fail at playback.

Sorry don't do 3DVista.

Tourweaver = English ONLY.

Clear enough?

Jim is right, but perhaps there is a workaround, which I have found with some of these programs that only like so-called western characters (not including Scandic countries Åå Øø Ææ etc . . .). You could try including ascii symbols in place of those that seem not to appear.

Not sure it will work, but it might.

Exactly. Flash Panorama Player (flashpanoramas.com) allows you to use whatever language you prefer to use.

Sure there is workaround - make your texts as images. I saw tours, made with Tourviewer, using Ü Õ Ö Ä. Why not Cyrillic or other languages.
