I like to use a × (ascii 158) as a password char, it´s clean, easy
to read and count, but int (win) lazarus, i can´t set it as
password char. When i set it, i becames an asterisk (*). This
doesn´t heappen when i set a common letters as vowels and consonants.
It works for me in Windows XP with SVN 31926. I can set 'x', 'X' and
that's what I see.
Maibe i found a bug?
Possible, but it may have been fixed since SVN 29749.
That doesn't work with GTK2 under Linux though. :-(
Hm, on my system 158 results in a "z" with some tilde or accent.
But that is probably the correct behaviour.
For some reason the PassWordchar field accepts an ansi char, rather than
a utf8 char. So what you will see depends on the codepage of the system
on which your app is run. Even if it displays fine on your PC, if you
ship the app, other people will see other chars.
How or why it becomes an * I do not know...
