Hello.
I hope someone can help.
UE suddenly started showing a message when I open a specific file I have been working on without problems for weeks.
The message is: "In order to view the document correctly, you may have to change your font and/or script settings in the Font Dialog."
After closing the message, the file is there and can be edited, but all operations (even cursor movement) is considerably slower than in other files, even if they are opened simultaneously.
The font is set to "Courier new, Regular, 8pts" and the script setting is "Western", as it has been for years.
All other files open without message.
If tried to copy the contents of the file, paste it into notepad, save it and open it in ultraedit.
Doing this I noticed that the problem is really weird.
When saving the file from notepad, I gave it a different name.
This file opened in UE without a problem.
So, believing I had solved the problem, I deleted the original file and renamed the notepad file.
But when I opened that file, bingo, there's the message again.
Playing around I noticed that whenever I change anything in the name the problem is gone.
When I change the name back to it's original, there it is again.
The name of the file that is causing the message is car$migratie.pcb.
changing a single letter in either the extension or the basename makes the message disappear.
Changing it back, well you get the point by now.
Since changing the basename also makes the message go, it can (imho) not be caused by the extension (and thus the syntax highlighting file). I also come to this conclusion because all other files with the same extension have no problems at all.
I was using UE 17.20 when the message first occurred. I tried if upgrading to the latest version 17.30.0.1012 would solve it, but no luck
