Suggestions on how to get the euro sign working
« on: September 14, 2012, 09:27:55 AM »
I'm having some problems to get the euro sign € to work within a label. Other more "exotic" characters like ë, é and $ work without problem, but the € never shows up, while it is present in the font. Any suggestions on how to get this to work? Love NGUI by the way!

The font definition file (the .txt that is created) also has it right? and it has the proper code assigned to it (i think the code is 128)?

Good call, no it did not.

According to BM Font Generator it used code 164 for that. I thought that by replacing the 164 with 128 in the font text file I would be able to fix this, but it didn't help. Do you have any other pointers?

Thanks

(Just posting this for future internet searches, since this is the post that showed up first when I tried to find a solution to this)

I had the same problem with BMFont and trying to get the euro sign. I solved it by doing what you did at first, have a character that I intended to replace, then, in BMFont, I loaded up a font that would have the euro character (such as arial), and then if you go on the right side and choose "Currency Symbols", hover over the symbol you want and in the lower right corner you'll see the code number for it.

The code I used for Euro is 8364.
