Spanish rss feed
Hi, I am trying to make a Spanish word per day sprout. I've set up a rss feed from grubb.net which I was going to use to make up my list of Spanish words and translations.
The rss feed shows fine in my sprout, but it has omitted the spanish accented letters.
For example, in Grubb I have typed 'Me gustaría' but in the imported rss feed in my sprout it is showing as 'Me gustara'
Hi Jan,
I've had the problem a couple of times myself. I used one of the (Int'l) text options and it included most of the accented letters. I hope this solves your problem!
Thanks for replying. As you can see in the above widget, I tried using Us international keyboard, Spanish traditional keyboard, and an online typewriter for accents. All worked perfectly in Grubb.net in my word list, but they do not import into Sprout through an RSS feed. Above words should have shown as - gustaría, ñiño, ésta and hablé all the accented letters are missed out.
Sadly, it doesn´t seem I can use Sprout for the purpose I had in mind which is a shame. Still think its great so may find other uses for it.
Hello Jan,
When editing your sprout
- click the rss feed componenet once to highlight it
- from the properties panel, scroll the News Feed properties section down until you find Font Family
- Select Tahoma (Int'l) or Helvetica (Int'l)
Hope this works,
Austin
