CSV import

[chdessus]

Hello

I get some troubles with importing data with é è ô à.
The export with the UTF-8 option is okay. The import goes well but ARCHI replaces the expected characters by a ?
How can I solve it ? I try to check the Preferences menu and the Import description in the Archi user manual but I found nothing on that issue.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, the imported file needs to be UTF-8 encoded. That attached file is not UTF-8.

I've added a note to the help file to say that UTF-8 is needed on import. Will be in the next release.

Hi, I developed some utility scripts, and an example script for importing data from an excel .xlsx file, using Apache POI Java.
It consists of 4 helper subscripts and a main example script.
What is the best way to share it with the community?

Hi,

What is the best way to share it with the community?

Usually, people share scripts through GitHub Gist, make sure your description contains '#jArchi'. See this page for a bit more information: https://github.com/archimatetool/archi-scripting-plugin/wiki/Community-shared-scripts
