    Javanese language is a regional language spoken by 145 million native Javanese at Java Island, Indonesia. Here is the example of Javanese language text, "ꦄꦏ꧀ꦱꦫꦗꦮ" (read : aksara jawa).

    As I read on "Evolving the Unity Editor UX" article, on the update of Unity 2019.3, the Unity Editor UI font is changed to "Inter" which is cool but unfortunately the font itself does not support Javanese Language that has Unicode block at range U+A980–U+A9DF. So if you try to type javanese language in Unity Editor's input field or try to display it on console log, it will displayed as invisible (Note : you can only type javanese language on Unity 2021 or above, otherwise the input field will replace anything you type with question mark). I hope Unity will update the Unity Editor UI font so it can support all languages, included regional language like Javanese language.

    And also, Unity Text Mesh Pro could not display javanese language properly because until right now it still doesnt support GPOS and GSUB table.
