Title: UTF-8 Characters bugged in Long PS section
Post by: andrew01 on April 29, 2026, 09:10:02 pm

Hello! I have noticed a small bug while playing around with the latest version of RDS Spy (1.0.9), that being that the characters Șș and Țț (especially the capital letters) are having problems with the font used in the Long PS section. I have also seen this exact issue on a RDS recording I did a bit of time ago of another station.

Windows API functions are used to assign characters and render them. I'm sorry but I'm not aware of any issue there.

Ah, I always thought it was something revolving the font size, or the font itself. Cheers for clarifying! ;D

You are absolutely right that the font could be bigger. The application is almost 20 years old and needs a more significant facelift.
