Behind this dumb question, there is a bug in XCode as far as I can tell.

Let's say I have a .strings file whose file encoding format is UTF-16.

When I paste some text from Mail or TextEdit to this .strings file opened in XCode, most of the time I'm losing the UTF-16 encoding. This is a real problem when you're dealing with localizations which are not English.

A quick example could be to select all the text in the .strings file and replace it with some text from TextEdit.

So my question is:

"How are you supposed to paste text in XCode so that you never lose the encoding?"

I'm not sure what you mean by "lose the encoding". Certainly, pasting text shouldn't cause the encoding to change. What is being "lost"?


The encoding is saved in the project file (for better or worse). I expect there's some interaction with this that's confusing things, but I can't tell what that is from your description.
