TEXT() macro not displaying utf8?

Hi,

This sort of thing used to work perfectly:

Now i get this result (the two first special characters seem to be ignored):

I haven’t been using special characters for a while so i don’t know in which version the problem arrived, but i’m pretty sure it once worked.

Did anything change in the TEXT() macro usage ?

Thanks

Cedric

you need to do:

FString test = FString(Text("YourText"));

Thanks, but same result unfortunately.

You sure your code file is encoded properly?

5

Could it be that the font you’re displaying the characters in doesn’t have those characters?

6

that’s the internal engine font though. doesn’t it have them?

That was it, well done and thanks a lot :slight_smile:

For anyone arriving here, i didn’t quickly find a way to reencode the cpp in utf8 in VS so i did it in notepad++.

I’m using a custom font but it contains all the characters, so that wasn’t the problem. Thanks though for the suggestion :-).

My cpp file wasn’t encoded in utf8 and that was the pb.
