This is a known Windows bug: When you call SetClipboardData(CF_TEXT,..) and do not explicitly set the encoding, Windows seems to use the current keyboard layout for the encoding. Since TC ignores the encoding setting of the clipboard when you paste a button, this doesn't matter for copying/pasing buttons, it only matters when you want to paste the button details somewhere else.
I even have a fix for this bug in TC: Call SetClipBoarddata(CF_LOCALE,...). I just didn't use it in this function because it wasn't meant to copy button data anywhere else...

I'm using UTF-8 for compatibility reasons, but only in fields which contain characters from other codepages.

I don't understand. When you're copying text to clipboard, you can copy it in any encoding (just specify right one for clipboard format), and when you're pasting text from clipboard, you can choose in which encoding you want to see it, so it won't be a problem if you copy Unicode text in TC 7.55 and then try to paste it in local ANSI codepage in TC 7.04a e.g. - Windows will convert text for you (you just need to specify encoding).
{Get|Set}ClipboardData functions have format parameter that can be CF_TEXT for ANSI text and CF_UNICODETEXT for Unicode text, you can choose any of them for both functions and OS will do the rest.

I believe UTF-8 is more universal encoding than Unicode. |

Does TC copy button code in ANSI? Or why such bug occurs? |

Isn't this issue fixed already? It seems it was fixed even before adding a support for pasting of a Unicode text to a button bar in TC 9.10.
If yes, maybe this topic should be moved to fixed bugs?
