dynamic font in input font tag

Hi, if i create a dynamic font at runtime by an OS font, can it be used in an input field tag ?
for example :
<font="myDynamicFont">some text</font>

 

The newly created font asset will not be found.

However, you could use the OnFontAssetRequest delegate to get a callback whenever TMP is trying to load a font asset via <font> tag where you could return this new font asset.

Alternatively, after you create this font asset, you could use the following function to register your font asset.

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. MaterialReferenceManager.AddFontAsset(newFontAsset);
3.  

Note: I do have plans to add a Resource Manager to TMP which will simplify this process. I am also planning on adding a new font asset type which will be "Dynamic OS" which I have described in a few posts on the forum already where this new font asset type will also simplify this process.

 

thank you for replying
i tried :

Code (CSharp):

1. MaterialReferenceManager.AddFontAsset(newFontAsset);

but it did not work, in an input field i tried the <font="theFontName"> but it was not recognized.

maybe i am doing something wrong
this is the way i create the font asset :

Code (CSharp):

1. Font osFont = new Font(fontPaths[i]);
2. TMP_FontAsset fontAsset = TMP_FontAsset.CreateFontAsset(osFont, 90, 10, UnityEngine.TextCore.LowLevel.GlyphRenderMode.SDFAA, 1024, 1024, AtlasPopulationMode.Dynamic);
3. fontAsset.name = "newfont";
4.  
5. MaterialReferenceManager.AddFontAsset(fontAsset);

can you please make a short example of how to use the : OnFontAssetRequest delegate ?
thank you very much

 

This shows up on google when looking for examples, so to help future generations:

Code (CSharp):

1.        
2.        // assign your font
3.         public TMP_FontAsset font;
4.  
5.         private void Start()
6.         {
7.             TMP_Text.OnFontAssetRequest += TMP_Text_OnFontAssetRequest;
8.  
9.         }
10.  
11.         private TMP_FontAsset TMP_Text_OnFontAssetRequest(int arg1, string arg2)
12.         {
13.              // args2 is the name that you are using on <font="this name"> if you need it
14.             return font;
15.         }
