Android Studio Encoding with German umlat characters For example. Ä, Ü and ...

Question

The German Umlaut characters (Ä, Ü and ...) are not supported in strings. I am using Android Studio (version 1.2 Beta).

The Germanic characters Ä, ..., Ü are not shown properly.

In my Gradle file, I assigned the following encoding:

compileOptions.encoding = 'windows-1252'

and here is a screenshot that illustrates the situation.

Edit: I see wrong characters instead of Ä, ..., Ü in the emulator:

Try to use encoding UTF-8

, as far as I know it supports German characters.
