Unicode character error when concatenating

[Dark Acre Jack]

Hello! First of all, excellent job with NGUI, don't know what I'd do without it. Keep up the great work.

My issue is this: when using the "degree" symbol, °, in a static label there's no trouble. But when I try using it to concatenate dynamically, I get this error:



To be clear: it works when setting up the label (manually typing the string in) as well as setting as a straight string, i.e. labelAngle.text = "0° H | 0° V";

Is this a known issue? I've tried with Encoding ticked/unticked, too, same story.

Cheers & thanks for any help with this matter.

P.S. I also know that a workaround would be setting up static labels for the "° H" and "° V" bits & that's fine but if there's a solution to having a single dynamic string I'm all ears

You need to save your file as UTF-8 with signature in order to use those kind of symbols.

Okay, looks like I'd have to go to something other than Monodevelop to do signature management so for me it'll be less of a pain to just set up custom standalone labels for the degrees stuff.

Thanks for the quick response, Aren. Cheers.
