€ eur symbol not showing in channels, writes a black rectangle
Added by Enrico Rossi about 2 months ago
I tried to write € symbol but is not showing irc channels, it gives a black rectangle. It is showing only in the edit box, but gives a black rectangle in channel.
I tried "unicode utf 8" and "western europe (windows)" encodes but they are not working.
I use "fixedsys ,font size 9 font" , i'm in Italy.
Please help me

You can try enable or disable https://dev.adiirc.com/projects/adiirc/wiki/Messages_Options#Use-alternative-text-rendering, if that doesn't work, try another font.

Doesn't work, but i have changed the font to "fixedsys excelsior 3.01" (size 12, not 9 like the old font) and eur € symbol works in it. It's a manually installed font in windows 10, by me, years ago.

Which fonts did you try?
Are you using AdiIRC through wine by any chance?
Also, on what network does this happen?

In windows 10 x64 (not wine)
i tried in all networks

Fixedsys will most likely not have that symbol, have you tried other fonts such as Verdana, Tahoma or Consolas?

Does the symbol show with other fonts? If so, you'll have to switch to another font, you can try this one https://font.download/font/fixedsys-excelsior-301
