Thanks guys.

Aha, that makes perfect sense, thank you!
I'm currently on OSX using Wing as my IDE. When I ran this code inside a
host application, it worked fine (because it changes the default font).
I will verify that though before moving on. Text encoding/decoding
always confuses me (I hardly have to deal with it, so there is no
routine) and I want to get it right this time.
Cheers,
frank

Unicode is tricky, it bites me every time. This works:
It's not that hard. There are two possibilities. Either the setTool

does not include those extended characters.
Please note, the .py file actually has to be saved/encoded as utf-8.
You need to do this via your editor's save/convert function.
Actually, it doesn't. There are no characters in his file beyond the
base ASCII set, except for the one character in a comment, so the file
coding is irrelevant. If this worked for you, then his original code
would have worked for you also. That would imply that your tooltip
uses a different default font. No one here has mentioned what
operating systems they are using; that makes a difference.
