Click to expand...
B4X: 
Dim bt As Button
bt.Initialize("btmainarc")
bt.Font = fx.CreateFontAwesome(14)
'In iconhex i have the value
dim s As String =  iconhex.Replace("0x", "")
bt.Text = "Text " &  Chr(Bit.ParseInt(s, 16))

The Text and the icon is regularly displayed.

Where does the value of iconhex come from? Is it really a string?

This works for me:
B4X: 
Sub AppStart (Form1 As Form, Args() As String)
    MainForm = Form1
    'MainForm.RootPane.LoadLayout("Layout1") 'Load the layout file.
    MainForm.Show
    Dim bt As Button
    Dim iconHex As String = "0xF0AB"
    bt.Initialize("btmainarc")
    bt.Font = fx.CreateFontAwesome(14)
'    'In iconhex i have the value
'    bt.Text = "Text " &  Chr(iconHex)
    'In iconhex i have the value
    Dim s As String =  iconHex.Replace("0x", "")
    Log(s)
    bt.Text = "Text " &  Chr(Bit.ParseInt(s, 16))
   
   
    MainForm.RootPane.AddNode(bt,50,50,150,50)
End Sub

Are you changing the text of the button anywhere?

That example is clickable, the font doesn't change. There must be another reason that it does in your app.

Are you changing the size of the button in your code?

Are you loading any css files into the project that may overwrite the font setting?

Try removing them and see if it makes a difference to the button.

Also does it do the same in Release mode?

it is true stevel05
is CCSUTILS the problem, if I eliminate this
B4X: 
CSSUtils.SetStyleProperty(bt, "-fx-font-weight", "bold")
work fine.
Thanks
