Solid Edge ASCII codes problem on Win7 64bit machine
(OP)
Hi,
I have a problem typing in the "Phi" symbol using the ASCII shorcuts.
This started to happen ever since a switched to win7 pro 64bit.
I use "±" - ALT+0177; "°"- ALT+0176 and ALT+0248 for the greek "Phi", but in this case it doesnt work ... it types in an empty square.
Any clues in what could be the problem?
Thank you!

It has to be something to do with windows 7 64bit. I have it running perfectly on windows XP.
I posted this problem also on a windows 7 forum and I'm still waiting for a response from them.

Does it work in another program like Word? If you cut and paste from Word what do you get in SE?

Yes, it works in OpenOffice writer, but if I copy-paste it then it writes "Standard?" instead of the "PHI" symbol.
What do you mean by "right font" ?
Thanks for the reply :)

Read through the help files. There are different levels of support for unicode and 32 bit characters in different releases of SE. This is something they have been trying to improve.

I got a simillar response on a Win7 forum just 2 minutes ago :))
I'll have to check the "fonts" thing .. see how it turns out :)
RE: Solid Edge ASCII codes problem on Win7 64bit machine
I tryed changing the SE font to Arial ... now I get a strange "r" ... then tried Times New Roman ... same thing ...
Can I load the exact Notepad Arial font into SE ? Would this solve my problem? :)
