Hi Scott This works for me in LiveCode 7 dp3:
set the Label of Button "Button" to numToCodepoint(0x1D122) ;; bass clef Also pasting the correct character into the label field in the property inspector works under OS X (and may work on other systems too.) I suspect the problem that you are encountering stems from U+0349 being a combining mark rather than a character in it's own right. From OS X character viewer: ͉ COMBINING LEFT ANGLE BELOW Unicode: U+0349, UTF-8: CD 89 This will display the left angle in the label of a button: set the Label of Button "Button" to " " & numToCodepoint(0x0349) Hope this helps.
