MCU.Config.autoGenerateGlyphs
This option controls automatic glyph generation for static font engine.
Description
By default, this property is set to true
to generate glyphs for all used characters in all the used font configurations. To reduce the memory footprint, set this property to false
. In this case, fontcompiler will generate characters defined in font.unicodeCoverage only. For example:
readonly property font myFont1: Qt.font({ quality: Font.QualityVeryHigh }) readonly property font myFont2: Qt.font({ quality: Font.QualityVeryLow, unicodeCoverage: ["def"] }) Text { font: parent.myFont1 text: "abc" } Text { font: parent.myFont2 text: "def" }
If autoGenerateGlyphs
is set to false
, then the "abc" characters in the earlier example are not rendered as the glyphs are not generated for that font configuration. The "def" characters are rendered as the font.unicodeCoverage property of myFont2
has the correct character set.
Note: autoGenerateGlyphs
property does not affect StaticText element.
Usage
This property is accepted in the main application .qmlproject
file. It takes a boolean value, and the default value is true
.
Code example:
MCU.Config { autoGenerateGlyphs: false }
