    Hello,

    I have a small display problems. Special charaters (https://www.degraeve.com/reference/specialcharacters.php) won’t display in titles. The fun part is that they do display in each modules so i don’t get it.
    Regional setting are correctly set since i can get the special caracters (texte mode) when i am on the interface. Did i miss something?

    Thanks a lot for your help

      As I know, Roboto font of default MM has some chars missed. My remembrance tell me there were some topics about it.

        I was able to get the &#8593 and the ↓ to show in one of my headers…

        What characters are you having issues with?

                  I don’t think it is possible to do without using character codes

                  I would think that if you had a french keyboard, id would type right in…

                    well why should not be since within the module (calendar for example) it is working ? what’s why i don’t get it. the meta header is correct in the HTML pages (index.html) so it should show up

                      So, how are you putting in the characters?

                      French keyboard?
