Inserting a character (LC 7.0.1)

[Tim Selander]

Graham,

I was getting that problem, too, and not just in the script -- 
but field labels, names, etc.

However, the stack I was using I had been doing various tests in, 
including using v7, saving in the old format, re-open in an older 
LC, then again in v7, etc. Lots of 'wrecked' characters replaced 
by "??."

However, when I made a fresh stack in v7 and continued to only 
save it and open it in v7, then all those problems went away. 
Unicode (Japanese) is working everywhere.

Just for your info.

You may even see the character on the screen, but when you close LiveCode and reopen the stack in new activation of LC, that glyph is replaced by "?". It seems you have to use numToCodePoint and its inverse. But I am still exploring...
