Title: Problem with Rating Stars Font
Post by: jasperooni on 2008-09-28 17:40:51
Dear fellow foobarians and foobarianas,

I don´t understand why I can´t use Segoe UI with my foobar2000. I have XP SP3, foobar2000 0.95, Default UI and this code for ratings:
Code: [Select]
$pad($repeat(★,%rating%), 5,☆)
.

As You can see in the following screenshot everything works fine with Arial Unicode:

But with Segoe UI:

It's simply because Arial Unicode has the star characters and Segoe doesn't!

^Ok, then it´s not my mistake. I asked someone which font he used for rating and he said Segoe UI.

Which other font can I use? Is there a font that lets the stars look more like stars?

Install East Asian language support (http://newton.uor.edu/Departments&Programs/AsianStudiesDept/Language/asianlanguageinstallation_XP.html) and it will substitute the correct font for those characters.
