International character support

Echoview version 4.90 and greater supports input and display of Latin, Asian and non-Latin character sets for path names, names of variables, fields or objects and Notes.

Notes:

  • The Windows Language bar enables you to select an input language for the keyboard.
  • To achieve consistency for the decimal separator, date and time in Echoview export files, Echoview uses the format associated with English (United States).
  • The Welcome screen supports the use of &, [ and ] characters in file names.

Some associated programs (Echoview utilities and Echolog applications) and third-party libraries such as netCDF4 and Blueview SDK files do not support the use of some international character sets and cannot open or save files if:

  • the file name contains unsupported characters, or
  • the file path contains any folders that are named using unsupported characters.

When these programs encounter unsupported characters, they display a warning message and identify the files/folder that contain the unsupported characters.

For these programs Echoview Software recommends using only those characters in the Latin alphabet (as used for English) for naming files and folders.
