Arial Unicode MS is a pan-Unicode font that includes a lot of glyphs, including the eastern languages ones. It should be installed automatically with MS Office, I don't know why you don't have it. Anyway, if you don't need to write/read in eastern languages you don't need to install these fonts.
BTW, here's another pan-Unicode font (shareware, $ 5).

I have MS Office installed, but Arial Unicode MS is not. Is this an alternative to changing the language setting or is just another option? Do I have to change the default settings of Office to accomplish it?

BTW, if you have Microsoft Office installed you should be able to render these strings using the font Arial Unicode MS.

Well, I think it's normal (these languages require a lot of glyphs, so the new fonts will take a lot of space). I never actually installed them by hand (they were already installed when I bought this PC), so I never saw these two dialogs.

Thanks, that special setting probably is the key. I won't try it though, as 230MB to install, is humongous.

Originally posted by Skippybox View PostThanks for the code, but I'm no programmer, so it is hard to appreciate.
My question really revolved around accuracy of display. If a selection box is made on a zoomed in image, it will usually be incorrectly positioned in relation to the actual pixels of the image. Thus, a drawing in a selection box could be viewed as partly inside and partly outside the box, because the actual image pixels translate to many screen points, many of which could lie outside the mouse positioned selection box. Do you understand my point? How can this possibility be overcome. I think custom selection would, in theory, eliminate this problem. How can one see what they are really drawing when zoomed in?
Originally posted by impdf View PostSo maybe think about to use a toolbar with buttons instead of regular buttons. Using the CCS_NOPARENTALIGN and CCS_NODIVIDER styles you can position the toolbar in the resource file to your preferred position.
If you are using a toolbar it is also easy to set the buttons to an indeterminate state (this information you are getting in the CHARFORMAT and PARAFORMAT). Indeterminate means that you selected a range of character with different formatting (like bold and not bold).

No such luck here. If I try to change the font it just goes back to Small Fonts.

Some time I ago made a try to have better precision leaving to IV the work of drawing, but I had to write something like this:
Code://Converts a POINT(S) referred to the IrfanViewer window to a POINT(S) referred to the bitmap template <class ptType> void IVWnd2DIBPoint(ptType * IVWndPoint) { if(shift.x<0) IVWndPoint->x+=shift.x; if(shift.y<0) IVWndPoint->y+=shift.y; if(zoom<=100) { IVWndPoint->x=round(IVWndPoint->x/(zoom/100.0)); IVWndPoint->y=round(IVWndPoint->y/(zoom/100.0)); } else { SIZED pxSize=GetDIBPixelSize(); IVWndPoint->x=IVWndPoint->x/pxSize.cx+0.01; //To avoid that a 0.999999... is considered 0 instead of 1 IVWndPoint->y=IVWndPoint->y/pxSize.cy+0.01; } if(shift.x>0) IVWndPoint->x+=round(shift.x/(zoom/100.0)); if(shift.y>0) IVWndPoint->y+=round(shift.y/(zoom/100.0)); return; };
When is the next version of IP expected?

All other controls in the tool do, so it looks a little bit strange in the moment...
