Outline paths don't support apostrophes?

I’m noticing I’m getting empty results if my outline path, even when query is contained in “quotation marks” contains punctuation apostrophe characters. This seems to be true for both Bike 1 and 2.

I presume you are not getting “smart” single quotes from autocorrect ?

Here I am finding that if the outline contains a node with text like

The'ta

then that is properly matched by a path like:

//"The'ta"

I am, but I’m referring to this issue, which returns no match:

Do you know the Unicode value of that character ? (or could you type it here ?)

(I’m finding it hard to produce on this keyboard :slight_smile: )

I think copying the one from my original post should work?

Should be the same as this one:

Thanks – I see it now.

My Bike autocorrect settings skip smart quotes, so:

but I do find a non-match if (on this keyboard) I use something like ⌥] to get 0x2018-8216 etc

Yes, same here. Normal quote ' or " will find match, but others won’t.

EDIT:

Thanks for this report. My parser was failing on multibyte characters in quotes. Fixed for next release.
