Arabic Text Messages in Matlab

Question

When I display a message dialog, such as a warning dialog or a help dialog, using Arabic text as a message that it does not display properly.

<strong> Examples:

---

English:

helpdlg('Hello World !!'); 

---

Arab:

 helpdlg('أهلا أيها العالم'); 

---

My thoughts concern this character encoding problem, I really don't know for sure!

I tried using a different font, for example:

 text(0.6,0.5,'أهلا و سهلا','fontname','david','rotation',180,'fontsize',50,'color','r'); text(0.6,0.5,'أهلا و سهلا','fontname','arial','rotation',180,'fontsize',50,'color','r'); text(0.6,0.5,'أهلا و سهلا','fontname','Arabic Typesetting','rotation',0,'fontsize',50,'color','r'); text(0.6,0.5,'أهلا و سهلا','fontname','Courier','rotation',0,'fontsize',50,'color','r'); 

And the problem has not yet been resolved.

The question is . How are Matlab dialog messages displayed in Arabic ?

Answer 1

The solution is to change local machine numbers and formats to Arabic [Guide]

then restart Matlab, and Arabic will be supported in the graphical interface, in the command window, in the workspace, etc.

Only the dialogues still do not support the Arabic language.
