Yes, windows seven on my side.

no change when replacing the font-family line. Also tried to have Segoe as the first font of the line without luck.

be carefull, "Helvetica Neue" seems to be a german localized name for "Helvetica new". Not sure it is available with that name on all locales.

Another think that can help in sorting out this bug : I installed a "Lucida Grande" TTF font on my system. The font in mixxx changed, but the lucida grande font I found didn't contain such characters.
So style font change DO work. at least for lucida grande. I suspect this is the wrong font.

Last update before posting : YEAH, I got it to work !
We have to use "Segoe UI Symbol" font. Such a shame that a system font is split accross different font names :(

WFM under W7 with the following line in style.qss#L1028 :
  font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Helvetica Neue", "Segoe UI Symbol", Arial, "Open Sans Light";

so the issue is a matter of finding the right font-family that work on all systems. Maybe we also need to use a Symbol flavor of some other font under XP.
