1. Create txt-file with such combination of simbols: two small Russian letters "я", Tab and line breack (in hex: FF FF 09 0D 0A).

2. Open this file in lister.

3. The last vertical part of second letter "я" will be disappeared.

P.S. Tested in TC 7.50 pb2. OS: Win XP Pro Rus.

Cannot confirm with Western locale and Encoding in lister set to Cyrillic (1251). I will try later with Russian locale as default.

What kind of font do you use ?
Do you use themes?
What is your background color? Default?

Tried here on the same config ( TC 7.50 pb2. OS: Win XP Pro Rus) and can`t reproduce.

Confirmed here with default settings on TC 7.50 pb2. OS: Win XP Pro Rus SP3

I confirm the problem too.

For me, it seems to be very similar to this problem, fixed earlier. You wrote that time (on the beta forum) that GetTextExtentPoint32W worked strange with the Russian "я" character, returning 7 instead of 8 if Fixedsys was used…

That's indeed possible, but it shouldn't affect the displaying of the line (which is handled by Windows itself)...

Still occures in TC7.5PB3 .

Unfortunately I couldn't reproduce it, although I switched the locale to Russian (Windows XP SP3). I tried with the default font, but both letters "я" look exactly the same. Sad

Was it Windows XP SP3 eng or ger?
I`ll try to find an additional condition to reproduce this issue on non-russian Windows XP Pro.

German. What settings did you use in Lister? Did you set the codepage to "as in font" or to "Cyrillic"?

I have tested with an empty ini-file , so it was "as in font".
I assume that this issue is unreproduceable on german OS because it offers a different font for cyrillic simbols than the russian OS. I also can reproduce this only with default Listers font and not with the other fonts installed on my system. I will try to reproduce this issue on german OS tomorrow and if succeed I will give an additional information about it.

[added]
BTW. I can see a difference when switching "as in font"/ANSI or "as in font"/1251 . Last vertical pixels line appears/disappears immediately.

When you use "as in font", TC uses Windows GDI to output the text. When you choose a codepage, TC uses the more complex Uniscribe to show the text. TC then draws to a bitmap first, and then draws this bitmap to the screen.
