Fonts with Symbols

[Revva]

Hi Aren,

I have problems with displaying symbols in the font. I was able to display one symbol when i tried the feature in the starting. After modifying the text file for all other symbols it stopped showing any of them . I tried deleting the font and creating it again but still no change . I lost the symbol display for the the previous one also which was showing . How can i resolve this problem ?

I have a feeling some step was missed when adding the symbol to the texture/ definition file. You have followed the directions exactly?

Hi,

I have actually followed all the steps which were in the tutorial. The only thing which i dont know about is the way the symbol is copied on to the
texture with the rgba channel .

this is the line which i am using right now "symbol sequence=#COIN       x=394     y=472       width=30    height=30"

finally got it working . The problem is with the parser. I had a extra \t in between x and y values which was not trimmed. That's the reason why the "y" value was blank and it was not calculating it properly .

I guess this should be mentioned somewhere as a warning while importing the symbols. so people don't make mistakes .

Now the UI looks nice with lots and lots of symbols .
