B4J Question Fontawesome update

[janderkan]

Hi

Can someone help on how to update Fontawesome icons.
On their homepage I can see more free icons than there are included in B4X.
I found FontAwesomeList.txt in \Anywhere Software\B4J
Is it enough to edit this file and what is the file format ?
Is there a way to add the paid icons ?

If possible I will volunteer to help keeping this file updated

Jan

Dim IconsFont As B4XFont
IconsFont = xui.CreateFont(fx.LoadFont(File.DirAssets,"icomoon.ttf",64),64)

Thank you for your input.

I find it has value that the icons are integrated in the IDE.

Question for @Erel

 

[Erel]

The problem with newer versions of FontAwesome is that they are not backward compatible.

I've created an external picker for an extended version of Material Icons: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-materialicons-web-font-chooser.103985/#content

When the next version of B4A will be released, it will be simple to start it with a "comment link". I will then extend it to work with FontAwesome as well.
