BC3 won't save font setting if it contains chinese character

[dafan]

Because the default editor font is not clearly in my computer, I wanted to change it to another font, whose name contains characters characters (宋体 for example). The font can be changed, but this config can not be saved after BC3 is closed. I've looked in the "%AppData%\Scooter Software\Beyond Compare 3" directory. In BCState.xml only "<_0 Value=""/>" is saved. So when I rerun BC3, the editor font is setted back to the default editor font.

Please correct it. Thank you!

Hello dafan,

Thank you for reporting the problem. We found some strange behavior when using a font whose name is in chinese characters. We'll try to improve this behavior.

Thank you!

btw, do you have a plan to release localized version of BC3 in the future?

We are currently working on German, French and Japanese versions of BC3. We have no plans for a Chinese version yet.
