I use the mach3 screen designer, but I got a list in russian of all the names of the caps buttons, so I just only change the names, with the mach3screen designer, when I want to copy and paste the word in cyrilics, the mach3screen put me ??????, do not acept this kind of fonts with cyrilics caracters.

Hi lefrai,

do get the question marks in the screendesigner when you paste the cyrilics, or in Mach3?

Hi lefrai,

Screen3, Screen4, Jetcam Editor, or MachScreen?

Hi Lefrai,

I'm not sure whether I can help you at all. First I don't know if diffrent character sets like cyrilic are supported by Mach3, second if I could help you, it would only with Machscreen. The following procedure assumes the language setting english. 
If you would use MachScreen, create a new screen and add a button. Be sure the button is selected and doubleclick in the line of "text on control" the string "text" (the background color changes to blue) and write your text in cyrilic.

Hi Lefrai,


I thought a bit deeper about your problem. Forget what I wrote before, it is nonsens. The best is to build a bitmap with your cyrillic text and put it on the button.
