framework.set_window_title - wierd characters

Scripting Issues
1

Hi guys,
I’m new here so yay for my first post :slight_smile:

Anyway, when I use the framework.set_window_title it prints out garbage instead of the text I type in.

I am using Panda3D 1.7.

Anybody know why?

Cheers,
Myles Blasonato.

Hey, welcome to the forums.

We’ll need some more information before we can help you. How are you invoking set_window_title, could you show some code? How are you compiling your application, using which compiler, and in which configuration?

This sounds like our 64-bit win7 issue. Several users have reported variants on this issue, but we haven’t yet tracked it down.

You’re not, by chance, running on 64-bit Windows 7, are you?

Thanks for the reply guys :slight_smile:

I am running a 32-bit vista system.
I was just doing the hello world tutorial from the manual.
Everything is working fine just the text isn’t.

Hope that helps.
Cheers,

If you go to the properties of the project -> General, What is your setting for Character Set? Do you perchance have “Use multi-byte character set” selected?

I too have experienced this problem and am infact running Windows 7 64bit
