Engine.loadFontAs

[Oli Ullmann]

Hello everyone! :-)

When I load a font with Engine.loadFontAs, I always have to restart HISE for the change to take effect. Does anyone know this problem and is there a solution?

Thank you very much
Oli

@Oli-Ullmann Why is it a problem?

@d-healey
I don't yet know which font I want to use and would like to try out different fonts.
It's quite tedious if I have to restart HISE and load the project every time to try out a new font.

@Oli-Ullmann Load all of them to start? Also, as I recall, you can choose from the system fonts when using the Label component (and therefore wouldn't need to load them, manually, for evaluation).

Yes, I have now loaded several fonts and can try them out. :-)
I want to make sure that the font looks the same on the MAC and on the PC. That's why I load them myself. You can't rely on the system fonts.

@Oli-Ullmann If you change it's name each time then it will work, but it's a bit annoying.

Thanks to you. I have not tried that. But now I have found the font. :-)
