: (colon) in EQ2UIPage

I'm atempting the read some values from the UI through the EQ2UIPage object.. works quite well when I figured out the path to the element...

Though now I'm running into a problem where it wont return the whole label... seems to be the problem that there is a : in the string...

So "Level: 15" ends up just returning "Level"... have a couple of places where it seems to do this.

Is this a known bug (can't seem to find anything here about it), and is there any way I can work around it to actually get the whole part of the label... the missing part is basically the only part I'm interrested in :(

this has something to do with EQ2's internal handling of strings with colons. Amadeus may be able to work out a better solution to the eq2uipage issues, or it may be a limitation he can't currently bypass.

My suggestion: make a bug report in the proper area of the forum.

I may have an idea , can you post the code portion you use to read the data , I had similar problems with commas.

Your issues with commas were related to using them in data sequences, where a comma is a delimiter. This issue with colons is an EQ2 localization thing, and seems that Amadeus may not have put enough work into the ":a123ba780a7ac708:This Test" garbage stripping routine.
