    Hi,

    I'm trying to display a text which contains numbers in a UI.Text, For example:
    Code (csharp):
    1. string msg = "15 x 30 cm";
    msg is previously read from an XML file with UTF-8 encoding.
    With Debug.Log(msg) the output on console is correct, but assigning the text to a UI.text text component results in strange characters.


    Any ideas on what's happening?

    Maybe your font doesn't include numbers? Try a different font.

    If that's not it, does the same thing happen when you manually enter numbers into the text field, or is it only when you read the string from an XML file?
