Is it possible to add an attribute to disable Calligraphy on a TextView?

[squeeish]

I'm required to have custom fonts app-wide while using https://github.com/JoanZapata/android-iconify.

However, android-iconify does not work with Calligraphy.

Is there a workaround? Can I do something like this?

<IconTextView
    android:text="{fa-heart}"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    app:disable_calligraphy="true"
    />

Thats a good idea. What would be prefered a attribute or a ignoreClass(Class<?> clazz) in the builder?

[squeeish]

Right now an attribute will be great because it would fit my needs perfectly. Let me see if I can contribute by looking at the code.

[squeeish]

Well in the interim I've found that using Iconify.addIcons(yourTextView) works for me. Leaving this here for future reference.

Meanwhile I'll submit a pull request soon for the new attribute.

How would this play out with menuitems, which don't give access to the underlying TextViews? Or are you somehow building out menus using IconTextViews?

[chrisjenx]

I don't think the menu items get any font applied as they are pragmatically
created by Android.

@chrisjenx do you have caligraphy and android-iconify running together in you project?

[chrisjenx]

No, never used iconify.

@chrisjenx thanks for a great library

Just faced the same issue and in my opinion it should be an ignoreClass since you don't want to write attribute in every single place where you use iconify in a layout. Created #189

[kashban]

Why not both options? An attribute and an ignoreClass in the builder? Either can be helpful.

[chrisjenx]

OK, seen as more than one person wants this I'll add it as a feature
request.

@kashban on the other hand maybe there is some scenario where this could be of use. Initially I only fixed this for Iconify. Pushed additional changes to pull request with calligraphyIgnore attribute

@rothschild86 I think until this gets implemented, another way to get both library to work well together would be to update your iconify library to use the v2 that has been released recently. Its author says it now works with Calligraphy. You can have a look at the new features here: http://blog.joanzapata.com/iconify-just-got-a-lot-better/

Cool nice work. Just remember, there are spans used in certain places
(Action Bar) still. Apart from that looks like a nice overhaul.

@k3v1n4ud3 right on! switched to iconics, which also plays nicely with caligraphy.
