Hello,

I am trying to access the arrow fonts using Wingdings, but I see only
small rectangles on the uicontrol (pushbutton). My command is:

set(handles.pushbutton,'FontName','Wingdings','String',char(231))

and I also used the native2unicode(char(231)) command, and I still see
small rectangles. I also noticed that in the "Preference - Font" menu,
the sample text is all displayed in small rectangles as well. I have
also looped through all possible characters and still only get small
rectangles. Is Wingdings somehow not installed in my Matlab properly?

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Hopefully someone can help me....
