i'm making sheets using NSBeginAlertSheet().
i use NSLocalizedString() to translate and file a found correclty since sentences are transalted but
the string displayed in french, german etc... have blanks in place of accentuated char (é,è,à,ë,ü etc...) !
ex "I liked OS X" = "J'ai aimé OS X" would appear as "J'ai aim OS X" (note 'é' as disapeared...)
is it a known bug ? i've tested in english to, same problem 
how can i fix this ? (reading french without accent is a nightmare)
damn OS X, internationalized 
thnaks

Do you have French strings in the source code? (That is, does your source look like NSLocalizedString(@"J'ai aimé OS X")?) If that's the case, your problem could be with compiler tools not handling non-ASCII characters. You might be able to solve it by using UTF-8 encoding for your source code files, or you could use dummy strings as the keys for NSLocalizedString().

no i don"t have French string in my source code. All English, then localized...
Stranger, i found that :
a German send me a translated Localizable.string like this :
"An error prevented preferences saving !" = "Ein Fehler trat während des Sicherns auf!";
or
"Please check" = "Bitte prüfen"
look at this strange hyeroglyph (!), THIS WORKS in the sheets !, i mean the symbols are displayed as "ë, ü, à" correctly !
i don't understand how did this guy achieve th have this symbols...
i'm lost

I have exactly the same problem with tooltips that use NSLocalizedString... the characters with accents are missing...
How can this be fixed?

Now I have the answer...
Although you can type the accented characters in ProjectBuilder (or TextEdit), the Localized.strings file is not saved as full UTF-8 Unicode....
Save it as Unicode in BBEdit, or similar, and you'll find the problem goes away...

Isn't there a way to set your source file at UTF-8 in Project Builder? I'm pretty sure there is, but I'm stuck at work on a PC now so I can't check.

i would've thought so... but I couldn't see it at a cursory glance.

I see it in Format -> File Encodings -> UTF-8.

thanks guys !
it works now, it is a lot nicer !
is it clearly written in apple docs ? should make a bug/feedback report ?
many people seems confused... the better would be to automatically set UTF8 to the "Localized.string" added by "Add Localized Variant" button...
i'm happy
