The Font.print doesn't work about the ttf font

[lualiliu]

while true do -- Draw something on screen Screen.refresh() Screen.waitVblankStart() Screen.flip() my_font = Font.load("/font.tff"); Font.setPixelSizes(my_font,18); -- Writing something on screen Font.print(my_font, 5, 5, "hello world", Color.new(255,255,255), TOP_SCREEN) -- Sets up HomeMenu syscall if Controls.check(Controls.read(),KEY_HOME) or Controls.check(Controls.read(),KEY_POWER) then System.showHomeMenu() end -- Exit if HomeMenu calls APP_EXITING if System.checkStatus() == APP_EXITING then System.exit() end end

This is about ttf script ,and my 3ds forced exit,just like the Font.print doesn't work.

You messed up the code, You shuld draw on screen between Screen.refresh and Screen.waitVblankStart calls.

[lualiliu]

my_font = Font.load("/arial.ttf") Font.setPixelSizes(my_font,18)

-- Main Loop while true do

-- Updating screens
Screen.refresh()

-- Writing something on screen
--Screen.debugPrint(0,0,"Hello World",Color.new(255,255,255),TOP_SCREEN)
Font.print(my_font, 5, 5, "Hello World!", Color.new(255,255,255), TOP_SCREEN)

Screen.waitVblankStart()
Screen.flip()

end

always black screen...I don't think I understand.What's wrong?

Looks fine to me, swap positions for waitVblankStart and flip calls and try to add a Screen.clear(TOP_SCREEN) after Screen.refresh.

[lualiliu]

my_font = Font.load("/font.ttf") Font.setPixelSizes(my_font,18)

-- Main Loop while true do

-- Updating screens
--Screen.waitVblankStart()
Screen.refresh()
Screen.clear(TOP_SCREEN)
-- Writing something on screen
Screen.debugPrint(0,0,"Hello World",Color.new(255,255,255),TOP_SCREEN)
Font.print(my_font, 5, 5, "Hello World!", Color.new(255,255,255), TOP_SCREEN)

-- Flipping screen
Screen.flip()
Screen.waitVblankStart()

end

I tried many times in different codes.It still forces the exit. I'm using lpp-3ds_R5 and my 3ds a9lh. The text editor I'm using is sublime text
