Re: [mapguide-users] correctly display utf-8 arrow-symbol
The square can also mean that the unicode font used, does not have the specified character. Just like when people with an IOS device (iPhone) post emoticons native to IOS. On Windows and Android you see a rectangle with a cross, replacing the missing symbols. Either you should use the same font as Autocad did for the arrows to work, or you need to replace the arrow character with a similar character from the font you use for the labels in MapGuide. Arial font have the left and right arrow defined as: U+2190: ← U+2192: → If you can update the column holding the arrow characters with those symbols, they should display correct in MapGuide.

Re: [mapguide-users] correctly display utf-8 arrow-symbol
Hi, Thx for your answer. Sure, texts from DWG are represented as points. In Studio/Maestro you use the text style with an attribute "text_string" as text. All the texts are displayed correctly, even the diameter/per mill symbols are working, but the arrows (which should indicate flow direction) are not working. Instead of the correct symbol (right pointing arrow, left pointing arrow) only rectangles are displayed... -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/correctly-display-utf-8-arrow-symbol-tp5328356p5328497.html Sent from the MapGuide Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ mapguide-users mailing list mapguide-users@lists.osgeo.org https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapguide-users
Re: [mapguide-users] correctly display utf-8 arrow-symbol
Hi Reservoirdog, I think the arrow features might be exported as points data? Therefore, MapGuide's default display those points with rectangle icon I assume. Will it be easier just import the new left/right arrow symbols for the point feature instead of using rectangle? -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/correctly-display-utf-8-arrow-symbol-tp5328356p5328473.html Sent from the MapGuide Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ mapguide-users mailing list mapguide-users@lists.osgeo.org https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapguide-users
