°C displayed as °C

 

When I use setText for a label like this:

  1. ui->label_5->setText("°C");

It is displayed as:
  1. °C

If I set °C in Qt Designer in the form editor, everything is displayed as it should.

Why is this happening?

Nope doesn’t work.
tr is for translating, why do you think it works for this?

Maybe you are saving your files with a wrong enconding? Check it at Options -> Text Editor

Changing Encoding doesn’t make any changes. TRUTF8 does the job :)

  1. void MLineEdit::setLblText2(QString s )
  2. {
  3.     label2->setText(s);
  4. }

Adding trUtf8 here to s doesn’t work..

Of course not, it only works with static text. You’ll have to do the translation wherever s originates.

should look like this:

  1. this->setLblText2(trUtf8("°C"));
  2.  
  3. void MLineEdit::setLblText2(QString s )
  4. {
  5.     label2->setText(s);
  6. }
