I can confirm this.  
I would use this workaround:  
before storing the value in the model, replace `"#"` by something like this: `"&hashmark;"` and vice versa in the openView before filling the textfield.  
Maybe other characters are also affected. Anyone [@DevelopmentSupport](https://forum.universal-robots.com/groups/DevelopmentSupport)?
