QtCharts QCategoryAxis category label with 'smaller than' sign

[JanW]

Hi,

I have a problem when I try to add a category label which has a 'smaller than' sign. It works with a greater than or equal sign, but not with the smaller than.

The corresponding code is (uncomment the lines to try the corresponding sign in unicode notation):

xAxis = new QtCharts::QCategoryAxis();
(qobject_cast<QtCharts::QCategoryAxis*>(xAxis))->setStartValue(-1150.0f);
(qobject_cast<QtCharts::QCategoryAxis*>(xAxis))->append("-1150 to -950", -950.0f);
(qobject_cast<QtCharts::QCategoryAxis*>(xAxis))->append("-950 to -850", -850.0f);
(qobject_cast<QtCharts::QCategoryAxis*>(xAxis))->append("-850 to -750", -750.0f);
(qobject_cast<QtCharts::QCategoryAxis*>(xAxis))->append(QString::fromUtf8(">-750 or \u003C -1150"), -550.0f);
//(qobject_cast<QtCharts::QCategoryAxis*>(xAxis))->append(QString::fromUtf8(">-750 or \u003D -1150"), -550.0f);
//(qobject_cast<QtCharts::QCategoryAxis*>(xAxis))->append(QString::fromUtf8(">-750 or \u003E -1150"), -550.0f);
xAxis->setMin(-1150.0f);
xAxis->setMax(-550.0f);

When I use the smaller then sign, the label just stops before the sign (so the label is "->750 or "), with the other signs it shows correct (so the label is "->750 or > -1250" or "->750 or = -1150").

Anybody has an idea why or has a workaround?
Regards,

Jan

Hi @JanW,

This sounds like a bug. Can you open a bug on JIRA with an example so that this can be investigated further? Thanks.
