October 14, 200520 yr Commercial Member Hello all,What fonts are available for use within XML gauges? I have tried to use any installed font thinking, as long as it is a windows-installed font there is no problem displaying it. But so far, the only font that stubbornly displays is "Arial" or "Arial Black"I searched this forum for "Font=" occurences and there is also a mention of "quartz" font (which I don't have). Is there a trick to have different fonts displayed? F=Do fonts have to be a certain type to be usable in XML gauges?Thanks, P3D SpacePort Team
October 14, 200520 yr I recently did a lot of experimenting with fonts, and had no trouble getting any of the many I tried to display. My guess is you probably do have quartz and a few others in your FS9Fonts directory??? I believe a few of those are part of the default FS9 install. I also have ones like glassGA, MSgothic and a few other arials in there as well. Also, every font I tried from C:WINDOWSFonts worked as well, with tinkering. Many just needed adjustements in the Text X or Y size or in their "length" in order to display properly. Good luck.
