How would I go about loading a .ttf file on my Shoes app and set that as my default font?
Shoes version is 3.3.7
The documentation from http://shoesrb.com/manual/Built-in.html and http://shoesrb.com/manual/Styles.html mention font sections but dont mention an example of loading fonts.
Instead of installing the ttf file manually, I would like to know possible methods I could use to bundle and load it in Shoes (shy).
Something like below would be helpful.
font('./fontfile.ttf')
I would also like to avoid calling the font for each para individual ly. A workaround for that would be helpful too.
Sorry about this, I'm pretty new to programming.
You can do the following in Shoes3, for example:
font 'relative/path/to/fonts/Arial.ttf' unless Shoes::FONTS.include?('Arial')
Shoes.app do
...
end
This example exists in the Shoes3 source.
