Hi Scott
This works for me in LiveCode 7 dp3:
set the Label of Button "Button" to numToCodepoint(0x1D122) ;; bass
clef
Also pasting the correct character into the label field in the property
inspector works under OS X (and may work on other systems too.)
I suspect the problem that you are encountering stems from U+0349 being a
combining mark rather than a character in it's own right. From OS X character
viewer:
͉
COMBINING LEFT ANGLE BELOW
Unicode: U+0349, UTF-8: CD 89
This will display the left angle in the label of a button:
set the Label of Button "Button" to " " & numToCodepoint(0x0349)
Hope this helps.
