Font issue

[Probel]

hey there again ..
well i wanted to change my damage font to something cooler and i did the following :

-Copied the font into (/shestakui/Media/Fonts/)
-then under the combat text font (["combat_text_font"] = C.media.myfont_font)

it worked for the first one (Skurri.ttf) but then after i wanted to change it to another font (Defused.ttf in this case) .. it didnt work.

am doing anything wrong?

Why you think up your names for variables? You add global name https://github.com/Shestak/ShestakUI...gs.lua#L11-L14 like other variables?

["normal_font"] = [[Interface\AddOns\ShestakUI\Media\Fonts\Normal.ttf]],        -- Normal font 
 

["myfont_font"] = [[Interface\AddOns\ShestakUI\Media\Fonts\myfont.ttf]],        -- myfont font

Hi there

Thankyou for designing this fantastic ui. It is almost perfect for me. Just a little question. I have searched around the other posts and can't seem to figure out what I am supposed to do. Download or change the config file.

I find it difficult to see the font that is used in game on all aspects of the ui. How do I change this to Arial Narrow? I have managed to alter the size of it in the config file, but don't really want to mess with anything else.

This is my only issue

Thankyou for your help

Fonts are set at (there are three of them (Normal, Pixel and Blank):
\ShestakUI\Config\Settings.lua

Font sizes for different design elements are set in :
\ShestakUI\Config\Fonts.lua

I am not sure what Blank font is for, never changed it.

For Normal I copied the standard Calibri.ttf from Windows folder to
\ShestakUI\Media\Fonts\calibri.ttf
Normal is used for chat window, menu, tooltips, player frames.


For Pixel font I am using pf_ronda_seven.ttf, but I suspect it causes issues with Big Wigs skin because it's not a real 8pt font.
Pixel font is used for on-screen notifications, bottom info bar

P.S. My past post on customizations I had done with the fonts: http://shestak.org/forum/showthread.php?p=16970
