[Solved] Ampersand in Skin Options
I'm trying to use an Ampersand (&) in a custom skin options window but it's not parsing
I'm using
code:
&
inside a caption but it's just coming up as a blank character
Edit: Fixed, thanks to Mnjul

RE: Ampersand in Skin Options
Works in scripting interfaces... could it be that it is being used as a shortcut key indicator for when the user presses Alt?

Hmm, yeah, that is indeed the case
I'd have thought that would just have been &Hello tho, to get the H to work as an Alt
Is there a way to display an ampersand or is this a bug/limitation?

Try && ?
p.s. I don't think it's a bug. Everything that should be escaped in XML should be escaped, including &, regardless of its usage and its place.
