Use a different font #35

Recently, I needed to copy a password on another device, but couldn't because the password had characters the default font made it hard to know what it was.

When I get home, I'll link to a tutorial that may be useful if needed.

I'm thinking something like source code pro.

So system avilability there seems to be only 3 fonts...

 normal (Droid Sans), serif (Droid Serif), and monospace (Droid Sans Mono).

So were you suggesting then me adding a font, Source Code Pro to the application and using that?

I'm not a UI expert, but I know limiting the number of fonts in use is a good design practice. Do you then suggest all Editable TextViews be Source Code Pro?

I think I can get that from http://www.google.com/fonts/specimen/Source+Code+Pro

I think I could do that. Depending on what I am doing tonight, I can probably get it done then, if not by the end of the weekend.

It might be good to use on all the editable views. I was going to suggest only the character set and generated password ones, but all would be better.

I'll try to do the same with the online version as well this weekend.

Shoot, I forgot to do this, this weekend, so much else was going on. Still in my mind though.

Great, after updating to the newer OSX my dev environment for android is all screwed up.

Finally got that issue fixed up... Now its getting too late to work on this... So I guess tomorrow morning I will get this.
