Escape characters in font filter

Michael over 5 years ago

How can I escape characters inside the font filter?

I want to use following filter:

// filter:

abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ!?;%:?*()_+-=.,/|""'@#$^&{}[]0123456789\° 星期日星期一星期二星期三星期四星期五星期六一月二月三月四月五月六月七月八月九月十月十一月十二月星期日星期一星期二星期三星期四星期五星期六一月二月三月四月五月六月七月八月九月十月十一月十二月

How can I escape the " and the & sign in the filter string?

Try using XML character entities.

escape it and use double backslash as [\\]

hi!

so I have:

filter="YZ[\]^"

but due to the \ I have this issue:

Unable to read font resource: Unknown filter string sequence: 'YZ[\]^'.

I tried to replace the \ with \ (according to the link) but now I have this issue:

Unable to validate resource file: L'entité "bsol" était référencée, mais pas déclarée. (was referenced but not declared)

Do you know how I could include the \ in my filter?
