GMS 1.4's manual states:
Am I missing something here?
Edit: Yes, I was missing something. In order to display character 9647 you have to include it in your font range in the font settings! Also, the font you are using has to have a character 9647, otherwise an empty space will be displayed.
However, when I try to draw the string "test€test" with a font that doesn't include the '€' character, then only "testtest" is drawn - no '▯' is inserted in place of the '€'.Another thing to note is that the unicode character 9647 (▯) is used to substitute any missing glyphs that you may have in your designated font when rendering it in the draw event. So if your font doesn't have, for example, the ° symbol, then writing 90° will actually produce 90▯.
