FontIconFontFamily is not working with Embedded Fonts in Android

[Abubakr]

Hello lovely Syncfusion-Team,

FontIconFontFamily is not working with Embedded Fonts feature of Xamarin.Forms up 4.5.530 in Android but working in UWP. I have not tested it in iOS.

For example, AssemblyInfo.cs file in my shared project has the following statement:
[assembly: ExportFont("Icons.ttf")]

And the XAML file has the following imaginary code:
<SfTabView>
     <SfTabItem FontIconFontFamily="Icons" IconFont="{StaticResource Home}" />
</SfTabView>

And the fonts are not loaded.

Tha same fonts are working well in Android with many other controls but the SfTabItem not.

Regards,
Abubakr

Hi Abubakr,

Greetings from Syncfusion.

We have analyzed your query and we have implemented the control in native platform to map for Xamarin Forms, so we suggest to provide Alias name as like below code snippet.

App.cs: 

[assembly: ExportFont("GSTouch.ttf", Alias = "Icons")] 

Sample:
