Greetings!

In Russian works, only there is one but…
The cloud turns a mouse, but links in it are not pressed…
I wish successes in your developments.

Dear Roy, Thanks. It worked for Chinese on Drupal 6.15.

By downloading tagcloud.swf from http://www.roytanck.com/wp-content/uploads/unicodetest/tagcloud.swf (found this by using firefox), I have tried with Drupa 6.15 with cumulus module(one of drupal module which create tag clouds), and it works perfectly for all the chinese characters on my site.

I have read several documents from various authors, all of them are using the “character embeding/include these characters” from Flash CS4 (or CS3) to solve Chinese character issue. It is not “universal”. It only worked with the chinese charaters that was included(not for all chinese characters). This is the real solution to chinese characters(think about only 4.7k), amazing.

I still have problem: I am not able to hyperlink the tag to its proper page. From my understanding, I need to wait for the release of the Unicode version. then get the .fla file and work from there. Am i right?

Thanks again.

Jesse, the unicode version is still unreleased, but it will work as a drop-in replacement for the current latin-only movie. The CMS is pretty much irrelevant as long as it provides the tags in unicode. The Tag class has been completely rewritten to use the new Textblock and TextLine classes, and then create a bitmap cached copy of the rendered tag to avoid re-antialising. I’m afraid the changes are too extensive for a quick tutorial. Feel free to download the test movie from this page though. If you look in the source code I’m sure you’ll be able to find it. There are FireFox plugins that help you with this too.

i have seen “中國話”，assuming it is the “Traditional Chinese” specified in Adobe Flash CS4.(I am using IE7 and XP)

The question is: Can this unicode version be used with Drupal cumulus module to animate Traditional Chinese in Drupal?

There is one comment above saying that he can download the unicode version of tagcloud.swf, I can not find it. If it is possible , I would like to try tagcloud.swf with my Drupal to see if it can animate Traditional Chinese with Drupal cumulus.

If download is not possible, is there an article on how to make one? (I have tried to use Flash CS4 and select character Family with “Arial Unicode MS”, and it does not work)

Thanks.

Touma, not all languages are in there. I copied in words from Wikipedia and such. Dutch and German are part of the basic Latin character set that has been supported since day one. I added the words in your comment, but you may need to clear your browser’s cache to see them.

Any blocks/otherwise obvious failures?
