Among the TTF fonts, there are special characters that cannot be directly input from the keyboard. Is there a way to input them in GFX?

For example, #code...

Hello @mSH.1​ ,

Could you please provide an example of a font which doesn't support this special characters ?

When I try with Verdana, "#code" is displayed correctly both in the canvas and simulator view.

Thanks,

hello,

The special symbols to be used are marked in red below.

This is a special opportunity that cannot be entered on the keyboard, but it is a situation where you have to use this special symbol...

Hello @mSH.1​ ,

If you want to use special characters, you have to be sure that the font you use supports them. To check that, you can take a look at this post.

Then, if you want to call a Unicode or ASCII characters by referencing its code, you can use wildcards and reproduce the step described here.

Hope that this helps,
