Font is not serializing correctly

Hi,

We are setting the font for shapes as given below in client side while creating the node.

node.setFont(new MindFusion.Drawing.Font("Open Sans", 5, true, false));

But when it reaches the server and converting to xml its getting saved as Microsoft Sans Serif.

Coz of this while reloading the xml back to diagram the font is displaying differently.

Is there any fix for this?

Thanks
Kiran B

Hi,

Perhaps there is no Open Sans font available on the server and it falls back to Microsoft Sans Serif when creating the corresponding .NET Font object. Try setting font attributes through styles instead, the font name is saved only as string then and should not change after post-back.

I hope that helps,
Stoyan

Hi Stoyan,

Could you please give me a sample to give the font using style attribute?

Thanks

Hi,

Code
Select All
var style = new Style();
style.setFontName("Open Sans");
style.setFontSize(5);
node.setStyle(style);


or call diagram.setStyle() to use that font for all nodes.

I hope that helps,
Stoyan
