Hi, Present window doesn't show the correct title, it all turns to spaces, but the plasma desktop (icon tasks) did the right display. Reproducible: Always
I just played a little bit with it. For me it isn't turned into spaces, but all German Umlauts lose their "dots". E.g. ü turns into u. Very interesting, I'm quite sure that's a bug present since 4.0 and nobody had noticed.
err .... what? Do i miss sth? The titles in the black frame and the filter are correct for me - LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 Also "loose their dots" sounds more like "capped". For the blanks i had rather bet on a font issue. The titlebar is correct?

Created attachment 76733 [details] Well ... That's gonna be interesting. I found a bug in the title condension script (the Ä in the more serious message on SPON is dropped in the titlebar. It's the first letter, so i assume it's some byte assumption, because utf-8 operates on multibyte chars) but PW in general and that message in particular are fine (plus the titlebar condension is not active by default and has a secret key for the moment)
that's gonna be really interesting. Just tried the same on my notebook and here it works. Now I just need to find the difference in the setup (shot in the blue: font).
I'd inspect the clients and whether and to what they set WM_NAME and _NET_WM_NAME, because latter is UTF-8 but former is not. I do not think it's actually the font... (initially i had said that PW would use WM_NAME while the titlebar etc. use _NET_WM_NAME but it relies on the caption property of the client - it's *really* weird) Random side guess: do you also get this with XRender?
(In reply to comment #6) > Random side guess: do you also get this with XRender? With XRender I can see the dots, not really strong but visible. Looks like a combination of font with scaling in OpenGL
Lanczos filter is prone to focussing things into the void ;-) Does not explain the empty boxes and is thus not the same issue (quick test: "kwrite straße.txt" or "kwrite µsoft.txt" ) @Aaron: Please provide a screenshot. Also: What title precisely[1], what glyphs do you expect [2] and what font is used[3] - does it also happen with, say, DejaVu? Also: does it happen when you restart "kwin --replace &" ? @Martin Bug just dropped to "booring" because it's either because of the used font or the fontsystem not being "ready" during the early time when kwin starts (there're other bug reports, mostly focussing on DPI and rasterization settings, ie. Antialiasing etc. - seems distro dependent) I'm tempted to reset the bug to unconfirmed [1] in konsole run "xprop > broken_title.txt", click the problematic window when the cursor turns into a cross and attach the created file here [2] run "kcharselecet", look out for the glyph you expect and post the utf-8 number [3] run "kcmshell4 fonts" - it's the "General" font, where plasma might use a theme driven one.
All in attachment, 2) kwin --replace doesn't work; 3) I was with font "Ubuntu", tried other standard font, "SimSun", copied directly from Windows installation, still blank title.

Guess from the pics: Non-latin glyphs are resolved from a pixel font and QFont font; font.setBold(true); // <- bad visuals font.setPointSize(12); // <- kills pixelfont Can you compile and try a patch?
http://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/108663/
Anyone give me a hint on how to obtain that patch? So that I can see if it solves my problem ;-P I'm running 4.9.5 at this moment (on Arch Linux, I know how to rebuild kwin) On Wed, Jan 30, 2013 at 12:38 AM, Thomas Lübking <thomas.luebking@gmail.com> wrote: > https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=313915 > > Thomas Lübking <thomas.luebking@gmail.com> changed: > > What |Removed |Added > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Flags| |ReviewRequest+ > > --- Comment #13 from Thomas Lübking <thomas.luebking@gmail.com> --- > http://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/108663/ > > -- > You are receiving this mail because: > You reported the bug.
There's a "download diff" button. You'll need the kde-workspace/kwin sources and from there "patch -p2 < /path/to/patch.diff" (should apply on 4.10 no idea about 4.9.x) and recompile kwin.
Hi Thomas, I hate to tell you, the patch doesn't work for me ... Just re-built the kdebase-workspace (with the patch applied), installed, and did a kwin --replace and no effects, still blank in title.

was just a shot in the dark anyway. please provide the output of xprop on the window and also check dependency on the compositing backend (xrender/gl compositing) and/or graphicssystem (native/raster) and try setting the fot to DejaVu (for in-font utf8 support)

It was native. DejaVu make no difference ... gotta go, will provide more details later On 09:20 Thu 31 Jan , Thomas Lübking wrote: > https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=313915 > > --- Comment #17 from Thomas Lübking <thomas.luebking@gmail.com> --- > was just a shot in the dark anyway. > please provide the output of xprop on the window and also check dependency on > the compositing backend (xrender/gl compositing) and/or graphicssystem > (native/raster) and try setting the fot to DejaVu (for in-font utf8 support) > > -- > You are receiving this mail because: > You reported the bug.
Confirmed, fonts are now normal in 4.10.1
There was afaik no distinctive patch applied to solve this. Whatever happened, will have happened outside KDE (system locale setup, Qt, ...)

Hmm, that's ... so weird! It's like magic, suddenly everything's displayed correctly > > -- > You are receiving this mail because: > You reported the bug.
