Tools: Air 2, Flex SDK 4.1, Flash Builder, Halo component set (NO Spark being used at all)
Fonts work perfectly when running the appliction, but not in design view. This effectively makes design view WORTHLESS because it's impossible to properly position components or labels without knowing what the true size is (it changes depending on font...)
...
CSS included in root component like so:
<fx:Style source="style.css"/>
CSS file:
/* CSS file */
@namespace mx "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx";
global {
font-family:Segoe;
font-size:14;
color:#FFFFFF;
}
mx|Application, mx|VBox, mx|HBox, mx|Canvas {
font-family:Segoe;
background-color:#660000;
border-color:#222277;
color:#FFFFFF;
}
mx|Button {
font-family:Segoe;
fill-colors:#660000, #660000, #660000, #660000;
color:#FFFFFF;
}
....
Interestingly (or buggily?), when I try pasting the style tag into a subcomponent (lower than the top level container), I get a bunch of warnings in the subcomponent editor view stating that CSS type selectors are not supported in.. (all the components in the style sheet).
Yet, they do work when the application is executed. Huh?
This is how I'm embedding the fonts in the root level container:
[Embed(source="/assets/segoepr.ttf", fontName="Segoe", mimeType="application/x-font-truetype", embedAsCFF='false')]
public static const font:Class;
[Embed(source="/assets/segoeprb.ttf", fontName="Segoe", mimeType="application/x-font-truetype", fontWeight="bold", embedAsCFF='false')]
public static const font2:Class;
So, is there a way to get embedded fonts to work in design view or what?
