Hello all,
I've been trying in vain to set a font other than the default for a
label.
When I do it like this:
dfb_res = lite_new_label( LITE_BOX( lwFrame), &rect,
liteNoLabelTheme, 20, &label_title);
lite_set_label_font( &label_title, "FontName", LITE_FONT_PLAIN, 18,
0);
It seems to have no effect - default font is still used.
I think the font should load properly like that because this works fine
to set the font for a TextButton:
lite_get_font("FontName", LITE_FONT_PLAIN, 18, 0, &textFont);
lite_new_text_button_theme( DATADIR "/textbuttonbgnd.png",
&textButtonTheme);
textButtonTheme->font = textFont;
I have tried to build a new LiteLabelTheme to assign instead of
liteNoLabelTheme:
LiteLabelTheme* textLabelTheme;
textLabelTheme = D_CALLOC(1, sizeof(LiteLabelTheme));
lite_get_font("FontName", LITE_FONT_PLAIN, 18, 0, &textFont);
textLabelTheme->font = textFont;
dfb_res = lite_new_label( LITE_BOX( lwFrame), &rect, textLabelTheme,
20, &label_title);
But that has no effect either - still default font.
Can anyone tell me how to do it?

Hi Jan.
first of all, you need to have a Chinese font installed. LiTE uses
gulim.ttf by default, which it looks for in
/opt/local/share/fonts/truetype/ on my machine. I don't have it
installed so it's a little bit guessing for me from here. Unfortunately,
this only works in conjunction with the hantextline widget.
I would propose to, as a first test, simply copy a font with Chinese
characters over the default font which is called vera.ttf. Now, you
should be able to use and see UTF-8 text.
If your text box is not large enough, LiTE will perform truncating, this
may lead to funny effects with UTF-8, so have a look how it works in
your case.

Hi Jan:
i recently do the same work on the iptv. Maybe could give you some
advice.
1?ttf liabrary : simkai.ttf or msyh.ttf or other characters liabrary
must have, the code format is gb2312
2?map : do a map on the unicode to gb2312, my implemation is used of
a map list , i think you can find on the net
3?load : in the lite code, load the ttf liabrary , notice the load
path and the name
that all

Hi there!
I just tried out to display some chinese characters on a LiTE textbutton
but only the square space holder is shown.
Loading either german, english or chinese descriptions from an ini file
works fine. I can see the chinese characters both in my log file and in
the telnet terminal connected with our powerPC but not on screen :(
Can anybody tell me if it is working in general and maybe offer me some
hints?
Thanks in advance,
Jan
