embed ttf as embeded resource can't reference it
- by HoNgOuRu
Hi, I've just added a ttf file to the project (c# 2008 express) as "file" and build option to embeded resource.
I'm having problems when trying to set this font like this:
(I know the next line is wrong...)
this.label1.Font = AlarmWatch.Properties.Resources.Baby_Universe;
Error 1 Cannot implicitly convert type 'byte[]' to 'System.Drawing.Font' C:\Users\hongo\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\AlarmWatch\AlarmWatch\Form1.Designer.cs 57 32 AlarmWatch
I know it is byte[] cause I've set the option build as embeded resource, but...comparing with this line that is correct
"this.label1.Font = new System.Drawing.Font("OCR A Extended", 24F, System.Drawing.FontStyle.Regular, System.Drawing.GraphicsUnit.Point, ((byte)(0)));"
How can I set this.label1 to use the new font???
thanks
