Question by Karriz · Jul 05, 2014 at 06:43 PM · stringlabelsymbolsignpercent

How to show a percent sign in a label.

Hi, I have a label that's supposed to show a number and put a percentage sign after it. However, only the number is showing, the percentage sign doesn't show up.

The string looks like this: (Mathf.RoundToInt(playerScript.fuel / playerScript.beginningFuel * 100f)).ToString() + "%"

I know that % is used as an operator in C#, so it's not "supposed" to be shown. How could I get around this?

Anything in a string is just a string, it's not an operator and certainly is supposed to be shown. The only exception is the "\" character, which is an escape character. I expect the label just isn't wide enough. By the way, you don't need to use ToString() when you're concatenating numbers with strings since everything is converting to a string anyway.

But even if I simply put "%" as the text of the label, it doesn't show up. So it's not related to the width. For example, 123%456 shows up as 123456.

Edit: oh, it was because the font doesn't have a percent sign...

Yeah, I guess that would explain it. ;)
