The code that is generating this is:
cv::Mat img_combo(a.img->rows+2,a.img->cols+b.img->cols+2,a.img->type());
[...];
// Somehow this text is getting display in the picture as "???"
// VVVVVVVVVVV
cv::putText(img_combo, string("abcdefg"), cv::Point(30,30), CV_FONT_HERSHEY_SIMPLEX, 0.8, cvScalar(200,200,250), 1, CV_AA);
cv::namedWindow("Image2:",1); //<<-- The label that is getting dislayed as a weird "DE>>"
cv::imshow("Image2:",img_combo);
cvWaitKey();
cvDestroyWindow("Image2:");
Is there some sort of unicode local that I need to configure? Why is my ASCII text getting displayed this way?
