When I run into this problem I use the routine below to enumerate all the fonts and their styles. If you have both a "Plain" and "Bold" style for a font then you use the font name and set its style to "Bold" If you use a "bold" base font then its "plain" style IS the bold font and setting its style to "Bold" will do nothing.
function FontInfo local fnames,fstyles,tlist put the fontnames into fnames sort fnames repeat for each line tfnt in fnames put "*"&tfnt&cr after tlist put the fontstyles(tfnt,0) into fstyles repeat for each line tsty in fstyles put space & tsty & cr after tlist end repeat end repeat delete char -1 in tlist return tlist end FontInfo Ralph DiMola IT Director Evergreen Information Services rdim...@evergreeninfo.net -----Original Message----- From: use-livecode [mailto:use-livecode-boun...@lists.runrev.com] On Behalf Of Dan Friedman via use-livecode Sent: Tuesday, August 27, 2019 5:11 PM To: How to use LiveCode Cc: Dan Friedman Subject: Fonts on Android Greetings! I am able to get a custom font installed and running on a Android device. But, how do you handle the font family? Included in my app is "myfont-Regular.ttf" and "myfont-bold.ttf". When the app launches, I call: set the textFont of stack "main" to "myfont" It's only using the bold version (probably because it's first alphabetically). Is there a way to map a font to a style so that text is " myfont-Regular" and bold text is "myfont-bold"?
