iOS Question icon inside string does not show

[ilan]

hi

i noticed that in b4i (b4a works fine) if i put a fontawesome icon inside the string it does not show but outside it works.

this code gives me this output:

Sub Button1_Click
    Label1.Text = "Congratulations, you won!  " & Chr(0xF091)
End Sub

but this code does not show the icon:

Private Sub Button2_Click
    Label1.Text = $"Congratulations, you won!  ${Chr(0xF091)}"$
End Sub

for some reason the icon code is shown and not the icon itself.
in b4a it works fine!

It is related to the way Chars are handled in B4i.

This should work:

Label1.Text = $"Congratulations, you won!  ${"" & Chr(0xF091)}"$

ok thanks for the explanation.
but like this will it work on b4a too? if not i prefer this solution since it is for both platforms.

Label1.Text = "Congratulations, you won!  " & Chr(0xF091)
