Describe the issue you are experiencing

When editing the appearance of an entity within a heading card, the option is given to select multiple displayed elements from that entity, for instance:

In practice, this results in multiple values being displayed, separated by an interpunct/middot as such:

When casting this dashboard to a Nest Hub, unfortunately, these glyphs do not display properly and are instead shown as what I assume are its replacement characters (e.g., "�") :

When asking about this on the HA Discord I was advised that this may be a bug, and to submit an issue here. However, I wonder whether this glyph simply does not exist in the font being used on the cast device. This may be solvable by making the separator character configurable.

Describe the behavior you expected

Interpunct character displays correctly on cast target devices as separator

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Add a Heading Card to a dashboard referencing an entity that has multiple elements, select multiple elements for display.
  2. Verify that it displays in a web browser or mobile app with interpunct characters separating the elements.
  3. Cast the dashboard to a Google Home Hub / Nest Hub device and verify that these characters do not display properly
