Hi,

i have an issue with SF Labels. They are not showing the "&"-sign. if the fieldvalue is for example: "Müller & Bauer", it shows "Müller Bauer".

i had this issue before with textfields, but that is fixed now. i believe in last update it was changed.

Thanks.

This has nothing to do with SF, if you use a standard label you will have the same issue.  In a label, the "&" is a tag to set the next character as a hotkey or underline.  Same as in a menu.  If you want to show an &, then you have to escape the first character with another &.  Just do this:

MyName && SecondPart

It depends on how you are binding to it.  You could create a shared (static) class and then create a custom property to which you bind.  That is just one idea.
