Hello,

CELayoutEditor don't support characters '<' or '>' Value statement.

For example <Property Name="Text" Value="<<" /> doesn't work no CELayoutEditor.

It doesn't work only in CELayoutEditor.

Hi,

good one. It's an encoding issue. But can CEGUI itself read it? (Don't have an sdk over here at work).

Thanks for reporting

CEGUI itself can read it. It's only CELayoutEditor which can't.

Hi Olgarry,

i've found some time to do some bug fixing. CEGUI itself can't load the file either. The call "WindowManager::getSingleton().loadWindowLayout" fails for any file which has non-encoded "<" and ">" characters in them.

To verify this, just modify the VanillaWindow.layout file a bit, and run the Sample_FalagardDemo1 exe.

Can you let me know if that does works for you? Thanks

i used CEGUI mk2 0.3.x and this bug didn't exist in it. But now i've just updated CEGUI to mk2 0.4.1 and effectively CEGUI itself can't load XML files where there is '<' or '>' in text values.

The 0.5 release will add a new way to express property and support multiline text as well as CDATA section in the XML.
