The problem seems to be present in all text fields in dialog boxes (variables, cross-references, pgf numbering, markers), with the backslash sequences for a non-breaking hyphen (\+) and special spaces (\sm, \sn, \st, \s#) . When the dialog box definition is updated, a question mark appear in the document instead of the special character. To fix the problem, you need to edit the text in the dialog box (delete the box character and insert the backslash sequence again).
