Arabic text not showing up
Anonymous,
I can not reproduce this issue. Share us an example if possible.
Its a bit difficult to show the example as we are using data for our client and we are using enterprice version of power BI with data policy.
Backend Database is Teradata.
Although I am tring my best to describe the issue.
We have a list of Customer Name, mixed with Arabic and English Text. Which needs to visualize in a Table or Matrix.
According to our investigation, we have tryed to find the data from Query Editor, By
Edit Queries > Queries > Select - Table Name :
we find the data is showing Arabic and English both.
But in Power BI area, when we are using Table or Matrix Visualization to List the customer name, it is only showing english name, no arabic text is visible. there is no error messege as well.
We are using ODBC with UTF8 character set for SQL Assistent as Query Development Tool.
We have tryed to visualize data through Oracle Data Visualizer through the same ODBC, and it is working fine.
But we are unable to use ODBC Data source in Direct Query Mode in Power BI.
Hence, we are stuck. now there is only option to move the project from Power Bi to ODV, if there is no solution.
