Question

I have a library where contains a ThemeResources file, where contain styles.

In Fonts folder, I have a font file BuxtonSketch.ttf. Build Action is as RESOURCE

In ThemeResources, I’ve defined the font:

<FontFamily x:Key="FontFamily-Sketch">pack://application:,,,/Resources/Fonts/#Buxton Sketch</FontFamily>

<Style x:Key="TextNormalStyle" TargetType="TextBlock">
    <Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="{StaticResource FontFamily-Sketch}" />
</Style>

And since my UserControl called ProblemUserControl, I invoked but is not working

<UserControl.Resources>
    <ResourceDictionary>
        <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
            <ResourceDictionary Source="/Resources/ThemeResources.xaml" />
        </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
    </ResourceDictionary>
</UserControl.Resources>

<Grid>
    <TextBlock Text="La pelicula PROMETHEUS!" Style="{StaticResource TextNormalStyle}" />
</Grid>

What could be happening?

Answer 1

This blog and this blog both use the following syntax to use a custom font

Blog 1:

<TextBlock Text="SOTC Custom Fonts!" FontFamily="VINERITC.TTF#Viner Hand ITC"/>

blog2:

<TextBlock Text="Gothic" FontFamily="./GOTHIC.TTF#Century Gothic"/>

So for you I would think it would be

<TextBlock Text="Buxton" FontFamily="BuxtonSketch.TTF#Buxton Sketch"/>

Or for your style

<Style x:Key="TextNormalStyle" TargetType="TextBlock">
    <Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="BuxtonSketch.TTF#Buxton Sketch" />
</Style>

You may need to include the folder location, but not sure

<TextBlock Text="Buxton" FontFamily="Resources/Fonts/BuxtonSketch.TTF#Buxton Sketch"/>
