I'm using text with special characters for Central Europe, but these are displayed incorrectly in the title bar (system font).

An example is attached (the text has no meaning - it only shows some special characters):

var
s String
endVar

A string is assigned to s (shown in the image).

If I assign this text to a field with the font program CE (Central Europe), it is displayed correctly.
If the same text is copied to the title bar using setTitle(s), it is displayed incorrectly.
If the same text is displayed as a button label, it is displayed correctly.
If the button is disabled, it is displayed incorrectly again (as in the title bar).

The text in dialog boxes is also displayed incorrectly - this can be fixed by calling the dialog boxes, for example, via Visual Studio (the label uses UTF8).

Is there a simple solution to display special characters correctly in Pdox-Forms?

I also use CE fonts in my app.
I have no problems displaying them.

BUT I have to set regional settings corrrectly.

On Pdox form, you have to select for example "Arial CE" font, and "central eurpean" coding in text-font properies.
Also must set correct region in Windows settings: control panel - Region - second tab Administrative - Language for programs that do not support unicode.
