Hi all! Can you help me with my widget?
I use 2 custom fonts in my widget, but XWidget not support more than two custom fonts. XWidget use only one custom font for all widgets.
See attached screenshot: I use "Helvetica Neue Roman" for current weather and city name in widget, for current temperature i use "Helvetica Neue Ultra Light", but it does not displays as "Ultra light",
displays as a "Helvetica Neue Roman". Please, help me with this bug.
Thanks a lot! :)

Which is your OS? (win7,8..)
If you use win8.1 I noticed this bug too.. Try to press "Run" instead of "Debug" to see the results.
Completely shutdown XWidget (pressing exit from the icon tray) and load again.
Using XW with win8.0/1 unfortunately there are some important bugs.
On win7 all work perfectly!
If you use win7 try to download/import the font again from other site. Sometimes fonts that are renamed, are not recognized well from the designer.
Try this one:

As I told you the designer and XW in general works fine on win7. So, if you see that a font doesn't work, try a new one.. ;)

Cool widget btw! 8-)
Please share it with us.. I think it will be great for the Android gallery!
