How to resource fonts

Narek Kamalyan 2022.07.20 02:56

I am using custom font in my panel and want to resource it so it will be shown properly in any terminal.

Tried to resource it as we do for images but it seems not work.

Any idea?

Not possible because fonts have to be "installed" by the operating system, before they can be used.

You will have to provide a separate method for the user to install the font. Alternatively don't use a custom font.

Which separate method you mean?

This can be done within the code or user have to install it manually?

It cannot be done by MQL code. Must be done manually, or by external application that carries out font installation.
