Default: -1
A character index in the selected font. If −1, the Text property will be used instead.
Remarks
Normally, the visualizer draws the text specified by the Text property. However, if this property is set to a value other than −1, it will be used to index a single character from the selected font, and only this character will be drawn. This is typically used for symbol fonts.
Note
Single characters created from a symbol font by specifying a CharacterIndex are ignored by the label placement algorithm when it removes duplicates. If you want to remove duplicate symbols generated from a symbol font you must make use of the LabelOrganizingSettings.DuplicateAttribute property.
