Cyrillic symbols not working as filenames

[Vladislav Badabas]

Cyrillic simbols nor working. Pinta dont open file winh cyrillic simbols (ДЫЦИФ etc).

[grofaty (grofaty)]

I can not reproduce a problem.

I created file with name ДЫЦИФ.png and I can successfully open it on Pinta/2.1 on Ubuntu 22.10. Maybe this is Windows specific?

Can you do the following:
1. Create an image with file name only one Cyrillic letter and try to open file in Pinta. If error is returned then post the exact file name here.
2. In error message, can you please expand the error message (click on little black triangle) to display whole message. Can you please also translate it to English, so we can understand it or at least copy paste it to Google Translate and post the output here.

Thanks! Your last comment mentions it only happens with the "Open With" menu - so does opening the file through File -> Open after Pinta is already open work?

Also, is this with Pinta 2.0 or 2.1?

[Vladislav Badabas (vladbadabas)]

Pinta 2.1 - actual +
Inside app menu all work +

I did few more tests. First created PNG file with file name й.png

TESTS
1. Pinta 2.1/Ubuntu 22.10 - File | Open - Works fine.
2. Pinta 2.1/Ubuntu 22.10 - From within file manager select Open With - Works fine.
3. Pinta 2.1/Windows 10 - File | Open - Works fine.
4. Pinta 2.1/Windows 10 - From within file manager select Open With - I get the same error message.

It looks like Windows specific problem. I am marking the bug as Confirmed. Thanks a lot for reporting a bug.

@Cameron, it is interesting that error message refers to D: that does not exists on my Windows computer. Maybe this was the path when some extension was compiled or something. See attachment.

[grofaty (grofaty)]

ADDITIONAL TESTS:
5. Paint (Windows default image program) - File | Open - Works fine.
6. Paint (Windows default image program) - From within file manager select Open With - Works fine.

I see two possible causes:
a) Windows does not correctly sends the file name - which is less likely because Paint is able to open it.
b) Pinta does not uses correct encoding and so does not recognized Cyrillic character as file name. This is some how indicator because to my experience when program does not recognizes correct encoding question mark is displayed like in an example of this case. "?.png"

This should be fixed by https://github.com/PintaProject/Pinta/commit/fcc11ab52e405f34dbf5c9156c594bf937386a0e

Please give this a try and let me know if there are any issues! There will be an installer available at https://github.com/PintaProject/Pinta/actions/runs/4157445002 once it's finished building (requires Github login to download)
