I'm encountering the following (weird) behaviour when adding items to a QComboBox using PyQt5: The items are all added from a list of strings, but they are displayed correctly only when selected. When appearing in the drop-down list, the order of the numbers contained in the strings is changed:
my_list = ["200 x 300",
"240 x 550",
"400 x 120"]
# same list, but with the correct multiplication symbol:
my_list2 = ["200 × 300",
"240 × 550",
"400 × 120"]
combobox1.addItems(my_list)
combobox2.addItems(my_list2)
This is what it looks like:
Why does this happen? What can I do to fix this or is it a bug?
