Bug #6473
closedChirp not showing some menu items
0%
Description
After upgrading to 20190217 version, some menu items are not showing.
I'm sending a picture of the Chirp main screen. In the picture I was trying to access the Radio menu item.
The Chirp is running on Windows 10 Pro 64 bits.

Any suggestion to solve that issue?

You've not provided any information about your radio but the issue is that it has a setting or settings that are invalid/out-of-range. Please attach a CHIRP Radio Images (*.img) file from the radio and/or a CHIRP debug.log file.

The issue is about not showing menu options. The picture attached to this message shows the issue. Anyway, I found out the cause.
Chirp can't show some menu itens when running through Portuguese language. It's ok for others languanges.

Hi Luiz,
I finally comprehend what you are saying. When I switch to the Portuguese (BR) language I get the following error that I don't see when switching to other languages. Hopefully it is a clue to someone as to what is going on.

Luiz, sorry for the late feedback - maybe you resolved this already?
I think you might be using some accented characters or umlauts in the path to where your Chirp files are located (hard drive folder). There's a Python restriction which requires exclusively plain ASCII characters in the path. Might that be the reason for the issues you have?

Hi Bernhard.
I have changed the language to English and the menu items went show again.
The path for the Chirp in my pc is "c:\radio\Chirp". I had got the path issue on others applications written in Python.
Thanks for help.
