After uploading an application from a Panel View and creating a new screen, I noticed that all the texts have turned into question marks on my device. This issue has appeared on my Panel View and I am seeking assistance in resolving it. Thank you for your help.
If you notice untranslated text in another language on your website, it may be due to having multiple languages enabled without proper translation. Are you using multiple languages on your site? When adding a second language, it is common for placeholder characters like "?" to appear in place of text that has not been properly translated. Make sure to translate all content to ensure a seamless multilingual experience for your visitors.
I have only worked in one language. I uploaded, designed a new display, and then downloaded it again, but all the text on every display has been replaced with question marks.
Before sending the program to the HMI, did you ensure that the runtime communications link settings were confirmed? It is important to clarify whether the PanelView program is syncing with your PC PLC program or the online PLC. This crucial step should be considered to prevent any potential errors in the system. Is this something you have checked? - James
I have successfully tested the application on my panel, and everything is functioning correctly except for an issue with the text display. However, the buttons and level indicators are working perfectly.
Error BF21432 explains the issue of question marks appearing despite communication functioning correctly. The problem arises in PVP when application names contain accent marks, causing conflicts.
It sounds like you're experiencing a common encoding issue. Your device might be reading the text in a different character encoding than intended, causing it to appear as question marks. Try revisiting your development environment and ensure you're using a universal encoding such as Unicode (UTF-8) when creating and saving your screens. It's always a good practice to stick to a widely standardized encoding to avoid such discrepancies across different devices.

Answer: This issue could be related to encoding or font compatibility. It's essential to ensure that the encoding settings and font types are supported by both the Panel View and the device where the application is being viewed.
Answer: To resolve this issue, try checking and adjusting the encoding settings in your application development environment to match the requirements of the Panel View and the device where the application will be displayed.
Answer: Yes, you may need to review and modify the encoding settings, font types, and text formatting options in your application development tools to ensure compatibility with the Panel View and the target device.
Answer: It's important to test the application on both the Panel View and the target device during the development process. Make sure to use supported encoding, fonts, and text settings to avoid the question mark issue when transitioning from the Panel View to the device.
