Unicode characters not showing in System.Windows.Forms.TextBox

Question

These characters show fine when I cut-and-paste them here from the VisualStudio debugger, but both in the debugger, and in the TextBox where I am trying to display this text

Answer 1

You need to install and use a font which supports those characters. Not all fonts support all characters. the [] box character is the fonts representation of 'unsupported'

The textbox might be using MS Sans Serif by default, so change it to Arial or something else.
