Summary0011054: Inserting a glyph using the "Unicode search" fails
DescriptionInserting a glyph using the "Unicode search" returns a black box instead of the glyph.
Steps To ReproduceCreate a text frame.
Click in it and do:
Insert > Glyph...
You get in the Character palette
Use the Unicode search (second icon)
Search for "parenthesis"
Double-click 0028 left parenthesis
The character appears as a black box in the Character palette
Double click on it
The character appears as an empty box in the text frame

This has been reproduced with the left parenthesis, but also with other character (in particular the smiling face in OpenSymbol regular font).
Additional InformationThis bug does not happen when using the "Hide/Show Advanced Palette" icon instead of the "Search Unicode" icon.
TagsNo tags attached.

imo, the problem is related to the fact that when you insert a glyph from the unicode search dialog, there is no way to set the font to be used to display it...
