Cool Re: [09/27/08] Juicy ROM 2.2 [CE OS 5.2.20755 | 16MB PP]

Ok, I figured out what the deal was with the Tahoma font issue and my app.

Apparently, the Tahoma font files in \Windows are different. This was proven when I looked at the WM6 Device Emulator and compared the files.

Results:

[Device Emulator]
tahoma.ttf = 128kb
tahomabd.ttf = 129kb

[Juicy ROM v2.22]
tahoma.ttf = 144kb
tahomabd.ttf = 127kb

My app worked fine on JuicyROM v1.06, but then messed up on v2.22 because the font metrics changed and in turn my button sizes were wrong. As was the alignment and such.

So I took the two font files from the WM6 Device Emulator and copied them over to my Diamond in \Windows. Soft Reset and voila! Everything is back to normal again.

I'm not sure what caused the font file change, and don't have JuicyROM v1.06 anymore to verify the files sizes there.

But at least now we know.

Enjoy. =D>
