ex_fontawesome_viewer

Example program showing images shipped in FontAwesome and customised versions of them

This example shows all the fontawesome files in the current fontfile plus how to create some coloured images

In FGLDIR/lib you will find a file image2font.txt that references the fontfile font file FontAwesome.ttf in the same directory. These images are on the server and are hence available for ALL clients. Previously we shipped images inside the GDC, GWC, GeneroMobile

To see how to do colour and/or add your own images, note the entries in my_image2font.txt ...

circle-red=FontAwesome.ttf:f111:red circle-orange=FontAwesome.ttf:f111:orange circle-green=FontAwesome.ttf:f111:#00FF00

... essentially the last entry on the line indicates what colour to use when rendering the image. Without colour specified the images will be the system tint colour.

Also right-click on fontawesome application node and note how FGLIMAGEPATH has been set to reference

• my_image2font.txt - to gain the custom entries
• FGLDIR/lib/image2font.txt - to reference the default images shipped in FGLDIR/lib
• FGLDIR/lib - to reference the default .ttf file in that directory
