UWP fonts not loading on 3.5.0.123, only seeing boxes even in UWP Sample

[happyclan]

First off, thanks for making such an awesome plugin. I started porting my app to iOS and followed all the threads to get FontAwesome working on iOS (biggest change is having to associate the fonts as resources). But my UWP app is now broken as I'm only seeing the empty boxes where icon should be. iOS works. Android works.

I thought okay, it has to be me. So I checked out the sample. I was able to get iOS and Android working. UWP sort of works in the sample. But check out the toolbar icons because they look just like entire UWP app.

The latest build that works with UWP is 3.5.0.112. Anything after that breaks. And nothing works on iOS if the build isn't 3.5.0.123.

1. Is anyone else seeing this?
2. Do I need to put the FontAwesome ttf's or otf's in the UWP project as a resource? If so, does anyone have the specifics similar to ones provided for iOS?

Thank you, again. Awesome plugin. Awesome community.

We have a lot of problems too with the last versions of iconize. all our fontawsome icons are broken on IOS and UWP

Release the crickets! 😄 Any fixes from the community? I wrote a glue layer to switch to Material Design Icons which are working great...although I prefer the FontAwesome ones a little more.

Adding the ttf files in the ressources in platform specific projects did the trick for us

@tbelqdx awesome to hear you're working. what version are you on? Is this for UWP? Which fonts lib are you using? So many variables in this wild Xamarin world. :D

I have an issue when updated from 3.4.0.103 to 3.5.0.123. On Android Material icons work fine, but my own font doesn't show up.

On UWP here and I'm using Xam.Plugin.Iconize.Ionicons Nuget Package do display Icon in my Xamarin.Forms xaml. My icon shows up fine using Nuget Version 3.5.0.123 but not with latest version 3.5.0.129! So it seems we have different problems here??

My Code: in Code/App.cs:

        Plugin.Iconize.Iconize
            .With(new Plugin.Iconize.Fonts.IoniconsModule());

XAML/Xamarin-GUI: Declare header: xmlns:iconize="clr-namespace:Plugin.Iconize;assembly=Plugin.Iconize"> ..... later:

<iconize:IconLabel HeightRequest="30" WidthRequest="30" Text="ion-checkmark" TextColor="#8cc63e" />

Maybe that helps to track down the issues...
