Hi John, I use the following method to get the unicode value from some 4D constants: + //UI_KeyboardGetChar (keyCode_l) -> code //$0 code representing the keyCode_l //keyCode_l: 4D constant //example: Char(UI_KeyboardCharCode (Tab key)) -> "⇥" //http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_d

Re: Command Symbol as part of Title of Button

John, What I've done in the past (using Greek characters) was create an xliff file (which is in UTF-8) with the text in it. I'm pretty certain that worked in v13+ Regards, Wayne On Thu, 17 Jan 2019 at 10:26, John J Foster via 4D_Tech < 4d_tech@lists.4d.com> wrote: > Hi Tai, > > Thanks that

Hi Tai, Thanks that works well in v17 (which I will keep around and use) but not in v15.2 (that’s the clients current working version). John… > On Jan 16, 2019, at 3:15 PM, Tai Bui wrote: > > Hi, > > Hmm, not sure if it's just my machines or possibly caused by the emoji & > symbol editor.

RE: Command Symbol as part of Title of Button

Hi, Hmm, not sure if it's just my machines or possibly caused by the emoji & symbol editor. But copying and pasting the character as a text character and not as an emoji/symbol allows me to paste the command symbol into the properties list Title section, the form editor and running the form see

RE: Command Symbol as part of Title of Button

Hi, Have you tried the OBJECT SET TITLE command? OBJECT SET TITLE(*;"Button";Char(8984)+"T") Works for me on Windows and Mac, 4Dv16 and 4Dv17. Best Regards, -Tai B. ** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) Archive: http://lists.

Re: Command Symbol as part of Title of Button

Hi, Currently on a Mac (Windows later). I changed the font to "Arial Unicode MS" on the button. And I have PopChar - which when set to font "Arial Unicode MS“ shows the character as “Place of Interest Sign” and #8984(2318). So good. But I have tried many variations from pasting the character w

Re: Command Symbol as part of Title of Button

Hi Chip, Thanks. Seems strange that with all the Unicode characters 4D can handle that a button wouldn’t;t be able to show that character. yes I could create an svg button but seems overkill (at this point anyway). I’d rather not keeping whacking my brain trying things that won’t work. Anyway

Re: Command Symbol as part of Title of Button

John, as I recall to do this (command symbol) you need to use the Font Chicago, as it was only font that supported it. Chicago is a now defunct font. So... I do not think you can do this with a standard button and text. You might be able to cobble something together with SVG (I would not know),

Command Symbol as part of Title of Button

Hi All, I would like to show a command symbol (and option of shift as well) as part of the Title in a button. For example if I have a button with a Title as “CmdT" I’d like to see the “symbolT” instead. So far copying and pasting the symbol from the Emoji & Symbol Editor does not work. I cann
