There is a custom font set for a skin I am using and whenever i log out of user or shutdown in general, the custom font stops loading like at all. In its place, a default font is loaded. I have put the otf file in resource folder for the skins and even installed it on my laptop. The only way the font displays is if i install the font again despite already being installed. And after I log out, it reverts back to default. The only thing i modified about my skin is that i changed the font for day on clock and font for text ( Now You Are Listening) on music player to electroharmonix. the rest I changed to sans. I used the real font name.

Re: Font is not loading when I log out of user session
Don't put the .otf files directly into the @Resources folder. Instead create a Fonts folder into @Resources, and copy the .otf files into this folder, without installing them (for instance the place of the electroharmonix.otf file, in case of the Clock config has to be: Skins\Clock\@Resources\Fonts\electroharmonix.otf). Some details here.All_Mouthy wrote: ↑May 15th, 2024, 4:26 am I have put the otf file in resource folder for the skins and even installed it on my laptop.

Didn't work. Still have to manually reinstall every single time and refresh it to make it display properlybalala wrote: ↑May 15th, 2024, 11:31 am Don't put the .otf files directly into the @Resources folder.

i see that you had a @Resources inside of every folder, but that's wrong.All_Mouthy wrote: ↑June 1st, 2024, 3:08 am Didn't work. Still have to manually reinstall every single time and refresh it to make it display properly
@Resources folder should be into main skin folder.
https://docs.rainmeter.net/manual/skins/resources-folder/#Fonts
Code: Select all
; GOOD
Rainmeter\Skins\MySkinFolder\@Resources\Fonts\
Code: Select all
; WRONG
Rainmeter\Skins\MySkinFolder\Player\@Resources\
Rainmeter\Skins\MySkinFolder\Other\@Resources\

Re: Font is not loading when I log out of user session
Even if I missed this at the time (my bad, because I should have been realize this!!!), KazukiGames82 is completely right above: The @Resoruces folder has to be in the root config. This means that if your config is Genshin, The @Resources folder should have been located into this folder and Fonts directly into the above @Resources. If on the other hand the root config is Theme_Folder, this should store the @Resources folder, which in turn should store the Fonts folder.All_Mouthy wrote: ↑June 1st, 2024, 3:08 am Didn't work.

Assuming the config is Genshin, I create a package (a .zip, not a .rmskin) to let you know the correct structure of a config. See the attached package, please. The @Resources folder of this package contains the Fonts folder, which includes the five fonts which have been used into the two @Resources folder of your package.

Hopefully you won't have it. Glad you got it working finally. If this or any other issue arises, feel free to come back.All_Mouthy wrote: ↑June 20th, 2024, 4:27 am It worked and now i don't think I will have the same issue again.
