Hello

just loaded 3.2.1 (NET Build 3.2.1.111) on new computer.

I notice that in doing a Text Label @SCORE@ that £ symbol becomes ? symbol.

The $ seems fine enough but I want GBS.

All help appreciated.

cheers

If the game is using SCI font (e.g. when you're using the provided default fonts) it can only display characters in the range ASCII #0-127. If the font is true type font, it can display #0-255.

The pound symbol is normally not within the #0-127 range, so you cannot display it using SCI font normally, unless you edit the font file(say, by using Radiant's font editor) to replace a certain unused character with it (say, replace the $ symbol by the pound one and then type $ when you need it) or import a TTF set that has that symbol included.
