android 找不到资源字体系列@font/your_font_xml

Question

I am trying to use Font as a Resource in XML instead of using Typeface.

I have kept .ttf files in /res/font directory .

I have implemented something like this

In Layout XML

<Button android:fontFamily="@font/my_font"/>

In res/font/font.ttf

<font-family xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<font
    android:fontStyle="normal"
    android:fontWeight="40"
    android:font="@font/my_font" />
</font-family>

But still I am getting the error as below.

Error:(156, 33) No resource found that matches the given name (at 'fontFamily' with value '@font/font').`

I am referring this and this docs to implement this behavior.

Thanks.

Answer 1

Upgrade your gradle version to 4.1

Do this by editing gradle-wrapper.properties

distributionBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
distributionPath=wrapper/dists
zipStoreBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
zipStorePath=wrapper/dists
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.1-all.zip

xml file

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<font-family xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
 xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
 <font
    android:fontStyle="normal"
    app:font="@font/rupee" //this line for below android 26 devices
    android:font="@font/rupee" />

  </font-family>

make sure this is correct and it should present in font folder and rebuild the project (invalidate caches/restart)

Answer 2

Try renaming your font into the ideal file name format, which is:

All font names must be only: lowercase az, 0-9, or underscore.

Answer 3

You can change font location from

res/font directory

to

\assets\fonts

It worked for me, i hope it can help your problem

Answer 4

You are making font folder inside resource .It is wrong .

You have to make font folder inside asset

Follow this Steps.

Right Click on app > New > Folder > Assets Folder
