    The following Unicode character sequence labels are displayed differently for each package combination.

    Code (CSharp):
    1. <ui:UXML
    2.         xmlns:ui="UnityEngine.UIElements"
    3.         xmlns:uie="UnityEditor.UIElements"
    4.         xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    5.         engine="UnityEngine.UIElements"
    6.         editor="UnityEditor.UIElements"
    7.         noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../UIElementsSchema/UIElements.xsd"
    8.         editor-extension-mode="False">
    9.     <ui:Label text="\u0182" style="font-size: 100%; -unity-text-align: middle-center; width: 100%; height: 100%;" />
    10. </ui:UXML>
    • Unity2020.2.7f1 + UIBuilder 1.0.0-preview.12
    • Unity2021.1.0b10 (with build-in UIBuilder)
    • Unity2021.2.0ab (with build-in UIBuilder and UIToolkit)



    • Unity2020.2.7f1 + UIBuilder 1.0.0-preview.12 + UIToolkit 1.0.0-preview.14
    • Unity2021.1.0b10 (with build-in UIBuilder) + UIToolkit 1.0.0-preview.14


    I want the input field of UIBuilder to display the Unicode character sequence and the preview to display the character.

    We have our icon font as a fallback font of the font asset in the TextSettings. This works fine in playmode but this does not show in the ui builder since here that is not used.

    What I did during developement: I set an uss icon-class and put the font there like @shiena shows in the screenshot.
    When finished I removed the font from the class
