I am having problems with chinese symbols in modelcheck config files

[arobinson-2]

Hi,

Does anyone know how to get Creo to read the correct chinese text in the default_start.mcs file

I want to check a couple of parameters that have chinese symbols but everytim modelcheck runs it converts it into some other strange font that creo thinks is a different parameter.

PRT_PARAMETER

英文名称 STR NEQ ** ENGLISH NAME **

It appears correct in the text file but not when creo evaluates it.

I have tried saving the text file as UTF-8 encoding.

Ant

I have saved the default_start.mcs as UTF-8 encoding

Creo converts it to ANSI when clicking modelcheck interactive.

Problem half solved..

Add below line in config_init.mc : MC_SUPPORT_LEGACY_STRING    YN    N

This line now works

PRT_PARAMETER 英文名称 STR NEQ ** ENGLISH NAME **

This line does not:

PRT_PARAMETER    中文名称 STR NEQ ** CHINESE NAME **

For some reason it creo thinks these symbols 中文 are different to whats already in creo and tries to create a new parameter even though the parameter is already in the part.

Solved the problem.

Normal notepad editor didnt work.

Was using sublime text editor and changed a few encoding settings but still got stuck with some of the chinese symbols.

Went back to using Notepad++.  Converted all text to Chinese simplified encoding. The converted back into UTF-8 before re-pasting the chinese symbols.

Now Creo reads the parameters correctly when running modelcheck.
