Unable to change the font for rendering text. about imgui.net

[MetalDeveloper]

i fixed it

Font changing isn’t easy in this lib, sometime code is better than 1000 words so use this as reference: https://github.com/zaafar/ClickableTransparentOverlay/blob/master/Examples/SingleThreadedOverlayWithCoroutines/SampleOverlay.cs#L116

I tried that but I get this error when I run it.

Here is my code (My goal is to make a watermark that is displayed on the screen):

if (drawWatermark)
{
ImGui.SetNextWindowSize(screenSize);
ImGui.SetNextWindowPos(new Vector2(0, 0));
ImGui.Begin("Overlay", ImGuiWindowFlags.NoDecoration
| ImGuiWindowFlags.NoBackground
| ImGuiWindowFlags.NoBringToFrontOnFocus
| ImGuiWindowFlags.NoMove
| ImGuiWindowFlags.NoInputs
| ImGuiWindowFlags.NoCollapse
| ImGuiWindowFlags.NoScrollbar
| ImGuiWindowFlags.NoScrollWithMouse
);

   ImDrawListPtr drawList = ImGui.GetWindowDrawList();

   if ((DateTime.Now - _lastTime).TotalSeconds >= 2.25)
   {
       // one second has elapsed 

       _fps = _framesRendered;
       _framesRendered = 0;
       _lastTime = DateTime.Now;
   }






   this.ReplaceFont(@"C:\Windows\Fonts\msyh.ttc", 23, FontGlyphRangeType.English);
   font2 = null;

   //drawList.AddRectFilled(new Vector2(2, 5), new Vector2(120, 45), ImGui.ColorConvertFloat4ToU32(new Vector4(0.08f, 0.08f, 0.085f, 1f)), 6f);
   drawList.AddText(watermarkPos, ImGui.ColorConvertFloat4ToU32(new Vector4(1f, 1f, 1f, 1f)), "MetalWare");
   drawList.AddText(fpsPos, ImGui.ColorConvertFloat4ToU32(new Vector4(1f, 1f, 1f, 1f)), "FPS: " + _fps);


   if (font2 != null)
   {
       ImGui.PushFont(font2.Value);
   }

Make sure you are using the latest version of imgui.net. We fixed this bug few months ago.

[MetalDeveloper]

I was using an outdated version, im testing it rn.

[MetalDeveloper]

i get this error when i updated to the latest release (im using .net 6.0)

[MetalDeveloper]

Only

works for me without crashing

[zaafar]

You don’t need vsync feature of that library, just remove that if condition.

[MetalDeveloper]

I removed that line and i get that (thats not my code thats the actual im gui .net code)

[MetalDeveloper]

i also get this with it

[MetalDeveloper]

Do you have a discord? Can I add you on their and you can help me easily?

[zaafar]

How can I reproduce this issue on my side? For this purpose, I am wondering if u can give me the changes required to reproduce the issue in the sample projects (e.g. https://github.com/ImGuiNET/ImGui.NET/tree/master/src/ImGui.NET.SampleProgram OR https://github.com/zaafar/ClickableTransparentOverlay/tree/master/Examples)

[MetalDeveloper]

Can I just send you a simple project that does the same thing?

[MetalDeveloper]

Can I add you on discord so you can help me easier?

[MetalDeveloper]

my discord is: metal_developer

[MetalDeveloper]

💀 you helped me then just said good luck when it created a problem

[zaafar]

I knew you would be able to fix it yourself, good stuff! Closing the issue.
