Description:
In the text object of the diagramm, when I write some text to the 'text' field in my national langage (cyrillic), all it's symbols are displayed as squares. Nevertheless, at the diagramm all seems well, as in the 'name' field.

How to repeat:
Just try to type to that field some national text (cyrillic) or copy this test text: 'Привет! Я тестовый текст!'

Suggested fix:
Ah, if I would new it

Thank you for the problem report. 

Probably this can be changed by setting some other font in Options, but anyway the problem is visible in default configuration on (English) Windows versions.

Still watching this bug with all fonts set as Arial (it should be perfect in Arial). Tahoma doesn't help either.

PS: Changing fonts via user interface is hell, because I need to put font names manually and there is some strange bug - when I double click/click/press space or do enything else, the field doesn't become editable in most cases. Only 1 of 20 tries works..
