I´m facing some problems related to accented words that don´t appear in the interface. There are many English files that don´t have the matching Spanish file, like CrossCollectionSearch.properties. What format must these files have? UTF-8 or Ansi?. Saving as utf-8 makes library to ignore the text and use the English one. Saving as ANSI makes extended chars appear as symbols. Finally, to get an accented word I have to do the following:
1- Write the word, i.e: Búsqueda
2- Convert the file to UTF-8
3- Reconvert to ANSI so "Búsqueda" is like "Búsqueda"
Strange, but it works!
This must have been resolved as the spanish interface is complete, with accents appearing fine.
