Ok, I see. If there is a interface that is capable of unicode, it should cover most of the locales supported by Armory.

This is more of a python2 thing than Qt4 really. The solution would be python3, but at this rate might as well do Qt5, which is a task on its own and pretty much at the bottom of the list atm.

The wallet used index is increment only, regardless of what address type you request.

Ok, thx for the info! It is really no big deal, as long as in english [us] locale everything is working well ;-)

Now I get it!! There were already indices 67-166 pre-generated P2PKH ones ;-)
I've forgotten that Armory always reserves a pool of pre-generated addresses, which are displayed in the unused addresses expander...

Armory uses the pyQt4 clipboard interface which is pretty buggy actually. I'm guessing that what can't handle non ASCII data.

I have another question - I know this is off-topic but there are already so many topics opened, that would be like a data package with a header of 90%.
Since I've been using the address book many times - with german locale settings - I think that may have caused an error. Because I've been able to use/generate a P2SH-P2PK address that was 100 indices from my current address count away. Now my question is if every address I will generate in the future will dismiss 100 unused addresses in between?
I accidently transfered some BTC to that address :-/ My address count then jumped to 166 instead 66...

Yes. That's pretty strange. When I'm using german locale settings I can't select addresses via button in the address book, because Armory can't copy it in ASCII character format. As a work-around you can right-klick and copy the address and paste it into the field. When you do this Armory can identify which wallet this address belongs to. So probabbly the clipboard stores non ASCII chars and when you paste them into the text field Armory converts them back into ASCII?

So the take home is copy to clipboard is botched with non ASCII character sets?

But that work-around doesn't work with Lockboxes. When you create a new one and copy and paste addresses of wallets it says that a unvalid address was entered. Although it identifies the wallet that address is related to.

As for McAfee, was it messing with your blockchain data or Armory's DB?

It was messing with Armory's DB.

This issue can be tagged as soleved.

Even though I've deinstalled McAfee AV a long time ago this piece of software still hurts my neck. Because I've found out that it isn't enough to just deinstall it. In order to completely remove every "service" that is linked to it, you'll have to download a tool called "MCPR.exe" from the official McAfee website that is able to remove everything that still recides on your PC.

This tool can be found under this link: http://us.mcafee.com/apps/supporttools/mcpr/mcpr.asp

That address book issues also had been related to the german locale settings. When you're using it then you're unable to select addresses (especially when using multisig lockboxes). So after switching to English (us) everything works like it should. That would explain why you haven't encountered any of this issues.

I have also a issue with rebuild and rescan in this version. The building and scanning part works actually pretty well, but when the scanning is finished Armory immediately start to re-scan. I don't know why this happens...

...during the second scan, which immediately occured after the first one I've gotten a readFromSocket thread exception. Currently I'm doing a fresh rebuild & rescan with 0.96.1.2-testing. Probably there isn't much difference between the lastest testing and release version, but I'm trying my luck...

Are you using DB_BARE?

Nope, haven't set any specific start arguments or armory settings file. I'm only using a custom datadir.
But I have checked older versions and that issue still remains. Recently I've re-donwlaoded the blockchain and since then I'm experiencing these issues. So maybe I've to do a rebuild and rescan?

Since 0.96.2 there is a bug that doesn't allow the transaction details window to be opened in the global transaction ledger.
*** UPDATE: It seems that all transaction done prior to Armory 0.96.2 update are affected by this issue. ***
