I'm new to iOS programming. I've noticed that if I have a prefix containing the letters "g", "p", etc, the bottom part of the text is cut off when I use font awesome icons.

Is there a workaround to that? That's Swiftybutton by the way.

Hi

I made a simple extension of your library. It is based on UIImage support in project: https://github.com/thii/FontAwesome.swift/blob/master/FontAwesome/FontAwesome.swift

Could you integrate it and release new version, please?

Hi Patrik,

was wondering if it's possible to use colors on the icons? Haven't worked that much with FA, but I'm not sure if it's at all possible... would be really nice, though.

This library is awesome just like the font... but when I use it with a UIBarButtonItem the icon seems not to be aligned vertically with the title of the UINavigationBar and also very close from the boundary of the screen

in class FontLoader line 324:

fontURL = bundle.URLForResource(FAStruct.FontName, withExtension: "ttf", subdirectory: "Font-Awesome-Swift.bundle")!

just updated (pod install) and pod installed version 1.4.6

updated to version 1.4.8 and still have the issue. for some weird reason still pointing to line 324 but there are no code there.. I cleaned up and build the project.. simple don't understand.

Tested the new & old to make sure it is all working.

Font Awesome has been updated from 4.4 to 4.6.3.

I've made sure Aliases are included (after initially forgetting) and that the class names have remained the same for the sake of not breaking current installations, although if there is a mismatch - let me know! I could have missed one whilst checking.

The tool is just a simple script I wrote to pull and format the class names and unicode codes to try to make updating a little more painless, take from it what you will. It uses the YAML data from the official repo, what they use to generate the FontAwesome icon gallery page, parses and formats the data and just echoes the strings out.

Found out that 1.4.3 has the ability to set the UIButton font to another font rather than system font, which is awesome.

However, also found out that cannot set the title color of the button anymore in 1.4.3 (defaulting to black), reverting back to 1.4.2 fixes it.

Will check whether I can fix this.

I have a UIButton with FAHeartO for state .Normal and FAHeart for state selected but when I change the state to selected at user taps the button the colors change. If I have a normal button whit tintColor set to redColor in normal state but the selected estate shows the FAHeart in whiteColor and the background in redColor. I need the FAHeart in redColor with clearColor in the background. Is this a bug?

Before this change when you would press a UIBarButtonItem that had an FAIcon, the icon would switch to a question mark with a box around it for unknown character.

I just added the titleTextAttributes change for the selected state and now it works how I would expect it to.

Great library - thanks! (new to Swift/iOS, though been using FA icons for many projects - glad to use them for latest one!)

Question is on setting the icon for tabs when you have more than 5.

Setting each was simple enough (the documentation states to use 'first', though we found we can do this for each one...) ` tabBarController?.tabBar.items?[0].setFAIcon(icon:.FAUser)

    tabBarController?.tabBar.items?[1].setFAIcon(icon:.FAUser)

    tabBarController?.tabBar.items?[2].setFAIcon(icon:.FAUser)

    tabBarController?.tabBar.items?[3].setFAIcon(icon:.FAUser)

    tabBarController?.tabBar.items?[4].setFAIcon(icon:.FAUser)

` Works great - IF you have only 5 tabs........

However, if you have a 6th tab, [4] no longer works....

When setting a 6th (or more) tab, iOS changes "#5" to "More" with a ... 'icon' and then the user can select which one they want (and also the user can arrange the tabs - not highly useful in our app, but a cool feature, I guess..)

So, this does NOT work..... (

tabBarController?.tabBar.items?[X].setFAIcon(icon:.FAUser) (where 'X' is 5 or more)

Doing so get an error because the array is only 5 long.....

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSRangeException', reason: '*** -[__NSArrayI objectAtIndex:]: index 5 beyond bounds [0 .. 4]'

How to set the icons as FA Icons for these 'More' tabs?

This works fine:

    let tabBarItem = self.tabBarController?.tabBar.items?.first
    tabBarItem?.setFAIcon(icon: .FABell)

The tab icon FABell icon appears.

But the image and text color is blue even though the defaults to the setFAIcon method are black.

Passing a value for the selected selectedTextColor and other color properties do not seem to have any affect on the color.

How can you change the color? Are we doing something incorrectly?

Thanks

I had some error about name of some params and I rename theme like : UITextFieldViewMode => UITextField.ViewMode UIImageOrientation => UIImage.Orientation

and some others

struct Fontawesome: View {
    var fa: FAType
    
    var body: some View {
        Text(fa.text!).font(getfont())
    }
    
    func getfont() -> Font {
        FontLoader.loadFontIfNeeded()
        return Font.custom(FAStruct.FontName, size: 18)
    }
}

struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            
            Fontawesome(fa: FAType.faAdjust).foregroundColor(Color.green)
            
            Text("Hello, World!")
                .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, maxHeight: .infinity)
        }
    }
}


struct ContentView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        ContentView()
    }
}

… right places

On iOS9 and up you are still running into the terminal warning

[Assert] button text attributes only respected for UIControlStateNormal, UIControlStateHighlighted, UIControlStateDisabled and UIControlStateFocused. state = 4 is interpreted as UIControlStateHighlighted.

Removing the .selected State and replacing it through .highlighted solves the problem.
