How to use roboto thin font in qml

Question

I am trying to use robot thin font in QML in Linux.I have install bold,thin and light fonts on ubuntu. Other programs like openoffice shows me only roboto. How do i get to u

Answer 1

FontLoader will solve the issue for Light Roboto but not for Thin as it's not a sported weight. Remember to call font.weight: Font.Light in the text elements were you want to use Light weight.

You will need to repackage the Roboto-thin.ttf as a new font and then import it back with FontLoader, (no need for the font.weight: Font.Light call in this case)
