Where to find the Character set for device fonts?

I struggle to find any font specification in the SDK documents. In particular I need to see the available characters in "Roboto Condensed" font and their respective escape codes.

Forum search gives results about Appendices to the UX guide, which however I can't find neither online nor in the set of files and folders downloaded with the SDK

Can someone please tell me where is this piece of data hidden in the docs

Thank you!

All I can help is:

https://developer.garmin.com/connect-iq/reference-guides/devices-reference/

(takes some seconds to load…)

Here you find the font description for all devices.
In the past - I remember - there were pictures of the fonts as well, but there are no font pictures anymore…

Thanks for the reply, but I've already looked there.

No information about character set is provided.

Understand that the available characters will likely vary based on the language the watch is set to. For example, I doubt Chinese characters will be available if the watch is set to French but will be available if the watch is set to Chinese/

Thanks Jim

That's understandable, but where to find that description if available characters.

It's the English set that I want to see.

More specifically the available special characters. The code for the degree symbol which I needed was mentioned in a forum post and I've tried it. Works fine, but are there also arrow symbols? (up, down, left, right)

I once checked on my Edge which special characters are available.

I opened Arial UTF8 table on my PC and copy - paste the characters in question to my code and have seen which are working and which not…

The degree symbol might not be available with all fonts on all devices, even if you stick with english.

For something like the arrow symbols, what I do is have them in a custom font, and that way they will work with any device and any language. I have "icon fonts" for icons in general and don't need to think if they are supported or not..
