Special characters doesn't work on VOX. Along with some notes not being shown

[dreamy thistle]

The same notes and special characters are visible in the old build though. It should be specified that all my vox-charts use the utf-8 unicode

[unreal shore]

Any examples?

[dreamy thistle]

I'll send a dm

[unreal shore]

DM summary:
The missing note is because of this: https://discord.com/channels/1086048856678084609/1165728467271294986
Unicode is not being parsed correctly

[tight finch]

From an export I assume?

[dreamy thistle]

I usually export my charts as implicated in the Reaper 101 guide on #charting, so I don't know if I'm an idiot or it's Reaper or the engine

[tight finch]

Nah, I just needed to know because that means it's probably Latin1 and not utf-8

[dreamy thistle]

All my charts with vox use utf-8, also in the new engine :p

[tight finch]

huh

well then

[dreamy thistle]

latin 1 doesn't work in the old engine either

with special characters*

[tight finch]

mmhm

[shy spoke]

Just chiming in: I ran into this same issue when trying to test some Japanese lyrics stuff

[tight finch]

just to update

but Nathan apparently just did something about that so...

[shy spoke]

Yeah so they do show up as THIS now (which is an improvement)

But it doesn't look like there's any sort of set fallback font for extended characters

[tight finch]

Export song?

wait no you said jp lyric

yea, it's just a fallback issue

[shy spoke]

Yeah

I'm not actually really sure how fonts are sourced for these kinds of things. I'm currently reading into something called "Dynamic SDF" but this is all new to me

Hmmmmm okay so a new font cannot actually be generated from the Arial font. Funnnnn.
