Does tlf support Divehi

[aya]

hello every one

Im new to flex and

im trying to make some Divehi text work in tlf.

Divehi is not listed.

Does that mean it FP has no support for it yet?

any help in the right direction will be appreciated.

thanx

The Thaana script is supported in Flash Player 10, but I do not know enough about Divehi to be able to test it well. All I know is that we require fonts that contain OpenType tables for the script - older TrueType fonts will not work. Could you point me to fonts that you use and sample text?

And here is the link for the text. Its an xml file.

Seems to work fine (note the RTL paragraph directionality):

hello

I have been trying to write some Thaana using the tlf demo

But all i can get are question marks.

I can paste Thaana text int hedemo and it displays correctly. But I cannot continue typing.

Im using win xp and could use thaana with win word and xml editors properly.

I see that Thaana is not even listed in the Local listing.

ANy help is appreciated

thanx

The problem you are seeing (are you using a Macintosh?) may be fixed in the newer version of the Player 10.1. There is a beta of 10.1 you can try out, at  http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/. Can you try it and see if you still have the problem entering text?

Thanks,

hello robin

thanx for thereply.

I have installed fp10.1 I still cannot type in Thaana with the demo http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/textlayout/demos/

In the demo under Advanced character I think Thaana should be listed. It s not there.

It still displays Thaana text properly.

any help in the right direction will be appreciated.

thanx
