[LDTP-Dev] UTF-8 characters in settextvalue method

[Nagappan A]

Hi Ara,

I have fixed this issue, will check in the code by end of day. If you still
face this issue, please send us the test script to verify and fix at our
end.

I tried something like this

settextvalue ('*-gedit', 'txt0', 'C:\薔薇\ソ\表') and this worked for me.

Thanks
Nagappan
