I installed the HEVC extension on Windows 11 and I can view HEIC files using Windows Photos app.
But in VS code I still get:
The file is not displayed in the editor because it is either binary or
uses an unsupported text encoding.
It also pops up a window that shows me:
Configure default editor for '*.heic'...
How can I either configure another editor that supports viewing HEIC files (like Windows Photos), or just make VSCode use the codec itself?
Thanks

VS Code is currently my favourite text editor, except for Jupyter notebooks, which are opened as interactive python environments (let's call this 'rendered').
By itself it is nice that this is possible, but not I can live with opening them in a browser if VS Code would not render them.
There used to be a setting to avoid this behaviour ("jupyter.useNotebookEditor": false) but currently my installation does not recognise this setting anymore.
Since there are more file types that can be opened as text/source, or rendered form (e.g. html, md, svg, uncompressed pdf, etc.) and both forms can be usefull, I would be very excited to learn how to switch between rendered and source, preferably without switching global settings.
Is there a way to do this? I would hope for:
a mechanism that does not depend on (or can be overwritten by) the current jupyter extension
a mechanism that works for any file type (nice-to-have)
Are you just looking for a way to view/edit the raw json?
You can right click the file in the Explorer -> open with... -> text editor.
Or use "Reopen editor with text editor" from the command Palette (ctrl+shift+p)
I have a problem with iPhone images (bmp V3 format) when use Qt (version 5.6.0) to display them on QML in Windows.
When I click file images directly, I can see it
But when I opened it by Qt, Qt displays a dialog error: Fail to read image.
I put an example bmp V3 format at below link
https://files.fm/u/38c9b5ef#=
Just convert the image to PNG or some other supported format...
Check out this search result:

I am trying to port my application from linux to windows and I have a problem with theming. In linux this works out of a box, just compile it and application is using good theme and looks native.
I have installed gtkmm3 and gtk3 in MSYS2 and I am building it with CMake. This is OK, I had to copy all dlls to directory with binary to be able to execute it. I did not copy anything else. I am trying to create "unzip and execute" package.
My problem is, that application looks out of place. It does not look native at all. There are shadows around the window, which is fine in Windows10, but in Windows 7 it looks not native. Also several icons are missing.
Even gitk3-demo looks non-native in the same way (but it has at least the minimize/maximize/close icons correct).
So the question is: How can I achieve native look of GTK3 application on Windows? Or at least native window decorations?
Thanks
Thera are two sub-problems: missing icons and setting right theme.
Missing icons
For missing icons it was enough to copy these icons
window-close-symbolic.symbolic.png
window-maximize-symbolic.symbolic.png
window-minimize-symbolic.symbolic.png
from: C:\msys64\mingw32\share\icons\Adwaita\22x22\actions
to: "your executable folder"\share\icons\Adwaita\22x22\actions
Theme
Using win32 native theme
There is actually a built-in native-like theme in GTK3. For using native-like theme just create file "your executable folder"\etc\gtk-3.0\settings.ini with this in it
[Settings]
gtk-theme-name=win32
win32 theme is built in into GTK3 and only three icons from previous step seems to be needed.
On windows 7 this looks as following:
The problem is, that the decorations looks the same even on Windows 10 (including window decorations).
From comment from #andlabs : GTK+ 3 uses the uxtheme.dll APIs to get its Windows look and feel, and unfortunately Microsoft has kept those Windows 7-like for window borders. (more in comments)
You can see Windows 10 Gtk3 application with win32 theme here:
Using non default theme
And if you are not happy with default or win32 theme, you can use custom themes (like this Flat-Pat) from the internet. :) In order to do it you need to create config file:
"your executable folder"\etc\gtk-3.0\settings.ini with this in it
[Settings]
gtk-theme-name=Flat-Plat
and you need to copy the theme files to directory in path of your executable
"your executable folder"\share\themes\Flat-Plat
in that folder, the index.theme file and gtk-x.x folders should be present. Obviously gtk-theme-name and folder name should match.
After you run the executable you should be able to get different theme.
EDIT: So there is a win32 theme built-in, thank you #andlabs
EDIT2: Added screenshots
EDIT3: Added Windows 10 screenshot and corrected facts.
You can set GTK_CSD=0 environment variable to disable client-side window decorations and enable Windows native decorations, which gets rid of the ugly win7-like titlebar, as well as Adwaita-like one.
Actually, Gtk+3 been compatible with Windows 10 and you can use the native windows theme by making this your default theme.
gtk-theme-name = MS-Windows
For people like me who use (activestate) perl, the /share and /etc need to be placed one directory above the perl.exe (say in C:\Perl64 if perl.exe is in C:\Perl64\bin).
While GTK_CSD=0 is doing a fine job for windows frame icons, it seams that default Drag-And-Drop (DND) icons are missing too.
Dragging GtkEntry or GtkTreeView contents shows a drag-icon.
I've prepared a button as drag source under Gtk+-3.24.4. When dragging the button, the mouse cursor disappears and no drag icon is shown.
When using gtk_drag_source_set_icon_pixbuf(bt, pixbuf), the pixbuf appears as drag icon. But doing it this way is only half the job done, because move/copy indicators are missing on the icon.
For some unknown reason, the encoding of my files has changed without me noticing for a while.
It was UTF-8 and now is windows-1252. I have reset the project encoding from Settings->File encoding but I can't detect which files are badly encoded and can't figure out how to reencode all files within the project at once.
I have a strong feeling that the problem appeared with WebStorm 10 first released version, but I may be wrong. (I think it's because it set by default the project encoding setting to windows-1252)
Close every project you have opened by clicking File > Close Project.
Once they are all closed, the startup window will show up (The window with the latest opened projects with the options to open new project, etc..) In that window, at the bottom right corner you have settings.
In Settings > Editor > File Encodings.You can set up all the File Encoding options to UTF-8, it will be added to the new projects from now on.
If you want it for old projects, do the same steps, but access the settings once you have the project open.
I hope this help!
To convert the file encoding, you have to use some external tool to perform the conversion, such as iconv:
iconv -f windows-1252 -t utf-8 <input file> > <output file>
You can change your code's character set in WebStorm foot bar
Open code file
You can see foot bar ( This menu is in right down. )
Click character set select bar
change your code encoding
change and save
If you have encoding defined in your files e.g. like this <meta charset="windows-1252">
you can you use Idea's Replace in Path... functionality and modify multiple files at once.
Even you don't have that definition, you may be able to add it to your files using the same search and replace functionality. I had to convert massive amount of ISO-8859-1 encoded file to UTF-8 and this solution worked fine.
After upgrading to iphone xcode 4.1 build 4B110F all of my localizable.strings files are showing up as gibberish in the xcode editor. I created these files using UTF-16. I can not find a way to tell the editor that they are UTF-16. I am able to view the Localizable.strings files by viewing as a property list, but if I view them as Source Code, I see gibberish. I like to translate the entire localization.strings file and paste it into the editor. I don't want to have to cut and paste one line at a time in the property editor. There should be some way to tell xcode to show the file as UTF-16. Does anyone have any ideas?
I tried removing the files and re-adding them. I used to get prompted for the UTF type, but it does not do this any more.
You can find the text encoding setting for a file in the Utility area of Xcode 4.1. The utility area is the right-handside lateral area.
In the utility area, look for and select the first pane, named "File Inspector".
There, you will find the text encoding in the "Text Settings" block. Expand if necessary using the triangle.
I had this same problem. I was able to work around it (without much actual investigation) by simply opening the previous string files in TextWrangler, then copy from TextWrangler and paste into XCode4's view of the string file. Things seem to be working fine as a result.
To fix XCode 4.1 UTF-16 encoding issues:
1: Open the file you want to change
2: Put your cursor into the file, which will give the editor focus (VERY IMPORTANT).
3: Proceed to look under the Utilities Pane (very far right) for Text Settings and use the Text Encoding drop down to select UTF-16 or whatever other encoding you want.
If you forget step 2, and only highlight the file in the Project Navigator, you will not see encoding options.
