Adding Pound Stirling Currency Symbol To Legend

[simonbingham]

I've created a chart which works nicely, but I'm having trouble adding a pound stirling currency symbol to the legend.

 

The following code:

 

 

<set label='Project Name - £1000' value='1000' />

 

appears as:

 

'Project Name - £1000'

 

in the legend.

 

I've tried changing '£' to the actual pound stirling currency symbol, but that doesn't work either.

 

Can anyone help?

Hi,

 

Can you please try %A3 instead?

[simonbingham]

Thanks for your reply and apologies for the delay in responding.

 

I tried your suggestion:

 

 

<set label='foobar, %A31000' value='1000' />

 

Which outputs as:

 

 

foobar, %A31000

 

Any more suggestions?

Hey,

 

Can you please try the below suggestion?

 

<set label='Project Name - £1000' value='1000' />

 

Hope this helps.

Yes, I tried that and I get a question mark symbol inside a box so I guess that character isn't recognised.

Can you please try encoding the XML as UTF-8? Most of the text editors like Notepad can do this automatically.

Yes, thank you, that fixed it.
