Hidden tab character in quoted string in app of a sudden
Posted: Thu Aug 13, 2020 4:17 pm
This is related to VO 2,8 SP4 (2838) and not if a Windows updates started causes it.
For a few weeks, when running an application, many hard coded string such as:
"View all future trips for this passenger?" are displayed as: are displayed spaces. Upon investigation with NotePad++ and in the View menu, Show Symbol , Show White Space and Tab, I see the following something like this:
In all the years I've used VO, this never happend.
And now while checking if the VO editor is somehow is inserting the tab character and pressed CTRL-SHIFT-T which Toggles white space (See Edit menu, Advanced, Toggle White Space) and saw the following:
Note the >> after the View word.
How can a such bizarre thing happen? I know that VO is no longer supported and this post may feel like useless, but if someone runs into it, you'll know why. Now I have to check all quoted strings which could be in the hundreds if not thousands across several applications.
