I think, the problem is in GuiPainter.cpp line 356 etc. ============================== // Qt4 does not display a glyph whose codepoint is the // same as that of a soft-hyphen (0x00ad), unless it // occurs at a line-break. As a kludge, we force Qt to // render this glyph using a one-column line. if (s.size() == 1 && str[0].unicode() == 0x00ad) { setQPainterPen(computeColor(f.realColor())); QTextLayout adsymbol(str); adsymbol.setFont(ff); adsymbol.beginLayout(); QTextLine line = adsymbol.createLine(); line.setNumColumns(1); line.setPosition(QPointF(0, -line.ascent())); adsymbol.endLayout(); line.draw(this, QPointF(x, y)); return textwidth; } ============================== It happens \Omega is 0x00ad - so it's special. But it looks like this special code does not work. Stephan
