Alex Harui commented on FLEX-34115:
-----------------------------------
Embedding a full chinese font will make for a pretty big app.
But your finding indicates that the issue may be about device font lookups.
IIRC, the player asks the OS for whatever font family you have specified. If
the font family doesn't exist, most OS's return some other font that
approximates what you are looking for. I'm not quite sure how that works, but
there seems to be information about whether serifs are needed, monospacing, etc.
Anyway, it may be that the TextLine subsystem is asking differently than the
TextField subsystem, and the TextLine is being given a font that doesn't have
chinese characters in it. The article I pointed out indicates that some fonts
do not have all of the chinese characters in them.
So, there may be some other things to try, but having a simple test case that
takes any Flex logic out is probably a good idea. First thing to prove is that
TextLine doesn't work and TextField does, or vice versa. Then you can use the
APIs for whatever one doesn't work to try to figure out why. One simple reason
may be that you are asking for a font like Verdana or Arial. I think Android
may only have "Droid" fonts. If you actually set fontFamily to a "Droid" font
that you know has chinese characters in it, it might solve the problem.

> I have come to this bug where localization does not work in Android 4.4.2.
> Oddly, this problem only occurs in the spark list component. The dataProvider
> is showing blank items.
> The following is my code:
> <s:List id="list" width="100%" height="100%" locale="zh_CN">
> <s:itemRenderer>
> <fx:Component>
> <renderers:RoundedListItemRenderer
> decorator="{data.icon}" labelField="label" styleName="roundedListStyle"
>
> alternatingItemColors="0xdcdcdc" color="0x444444"
> downColor="0xb0b0b0" width="100%" height="100%"/>
> </fx:Component>
> </s:itemRenderer>
> <s:ArrayCollection>
> <fx:Object type="current"
> label="{resourceManager.getString('resources','str1')}"
> icon="@Embed('images/ico_next_grey.png')"/>
> <fx:Object type="statement"
> label="{resourceManager.getString('resources','str2')}"
> icon="@Embed('images/ico_next_grey.png')"/>
> <fx:Object type="history"
> label="{resourceManager.getString('resources','str3')}"
> icon="@Embed('images/ico_next_grey.png')"/>
> <fx:Object type="deposit"
> label="{resourceManager.getString('resources','str4')}"
> icon="@Embed('images/ico_next_grey.png')"/>
> <fx:Object type="withdrawal"
> label="{resourceManager.getString('resources','str5')}"
> icon="@Embed('images/ico_next_grey.png')"/>
> </s:ArrayCollection>
> </s:List>
> [Edit]
> I have tried on button. The same thing happens when I removed the skinClass.
> Here is my button code:
> <s:Button id="logoutBtn"
> label="{resourceManager.getString('resources','accountview.button.signout')}"
> width="100%" height="60"
> skinClass="skins.LoginButtonSkin"/>
