Opening las/laz files from folder with accented names
Posted: Tue Jan 20, 2015 12:21 pm
Hi Daniel,
I encountered some problems when opening las/laz files and other formated files in versions 2.6.0 and 2.6.1 and NOT in previous versions.
I've been doing some research and I think I've found the problem... After many tests, I've found out the following:
a) Whenever a las/laz file is in a folder or path containing an accent, the las/laz file opening fails! This happens only with las/laz files AND whe trying to open them in 2 different ways: from the open menu in CC, double-clicking in the windows explorer, dragging in an already open CC GUI. The CC message is as follows b) When trying to open any formated file (including .bin) stored in path containing accents BY DOUBLE-CLICKING on it, CC warns me that the file doesn't exist: If I'm trying to open any file except .las/laz, I only need to drag it into an open CC GUI instead of double-clicking regardless the path contains accents. However, if I'm opening a las/laz file, dragging causes the error described in a) so I have to move it to an non-accented path...
My name is Àlex and it is accented in Catalan so all my files are in the path D:\Àlex\... so you can imagine my headaches...!
Hope it helps!!!
