Degree Symbols

[AngelaFaulding]

We recently updated a number Attributes as the website was displaying a masculine ordinal indicator instead of a degree symbol. I checked with you both and agreed that it was Ok to make the change. However, we have had a helpdek query in today regarding https://www.datadictionary.nhs.uk/data_elements/degrees_of_flexion_range__primary_knee_replacement_.html?hl=degrees%2Cflexion%2Crange%2Cprimary%2Cknee%2Creplacement where the degree symbol looks odd: Note that this looks OK in V3: https://v3.datadictionary.nhs.uk/data_dictionary/attributes/d/dec/degrees_of_flexion_range_for_primary_knee_replacement_de.asp?shownav=1

On checking other items, there is a difference in what is displayed: https://www.datadictionary.nhs.uk/attributes/tibia-hindfoot_alignment_code_for_primary_ankle_replacement.html https://www.datadictionary.nhs.uk/attributes/ankle_dorsiflexion_code_for_primary_ankle_replacement.html https://www.datadictionary.nhs.uk/attributes/ankle_plantarflexion_code_for_primary_ankle_replacement.html https://www.datadictionary.nhs.uk/attributes/degrees_of_fixed_flexion_deformity_for_primary_knee_replacement.html

Is this something for @jamesrwelch or @likin1 to fix? Can we fix it for the December 2022 release?

How are you entering those symbols? The codes are not coming through cleanly in the XML - they'd be better if they were coming through as °.

As an aside, the copyright symbol is having the same issues in the onto server bit of the XML, not that it's used.

@likin1 - I have spoken to James about this. The content is correct in Together, e.g. @likin1 - can you fix this in your processing? If not, James will have to try.

[AngelaFaulding]

@likin1 - you haven't mentioned this. Is it something you can fix?

[likin1]

@AngelaFaulding yes this should be fixed in december release.

[AngelaFaulding]

Thanks @likin1 - I will check when I have the dita output.

These are now OK in the December release.
