problems with copy/paste of virtual keyboard code

[cyrille de brébisson]

Hello,

Most likely, you have some hidden characters that are not supported by the parser/compiler.

The Font on Prime does not have a glyph for every character, and characters with no glyph do not "show up".

Unicode defines a HUGE number of "special" character, think spaces or carage returns, line feeds, page brakes...

Prime parser does support a number of these, but probably not ALL of them.
All it takes for your situation to arise is a system, or a program to generate one of these special characters (after all they are in the unicode "norm") to cause havoc.

The problem of course is that everyone seems to pick/handle a different part of the norm, thinking that they are doing the "right thing"...

Prime does try to support as many of these special characters as possible, but some might be missing, sorry. Unicode is a mess in this regard.


So, to fix your problem, ASSUME that you have hidden, non supported character, use the Check button to get the cursor around the issue and do some "erase/backspace" to recreate the spaces/CR that you see on the screen manually, this should solve the problem.
For example, if you have
Line 1|
Line 2
(with the cursor being placed on the |), then erase the section from "1" to "L" to get the following line
Line |ine2
and then retype the 1, the CR and the L to recreate the original text (but with any funny business removed)
Line 1
L|ine 2

and then click on check again to see if it did indeed fix it.
