Any way to support multiple languages for user's custom file name?

General JUCE discussion

The user case is user can use their own sample, so the language for the file name might varies a lot, I already support Chinese and English by using a specific font, but is there any way to support as much language as I can? Thanks in advance!!!

Use TextLayout instead of Graphics text facilities to display the text in your widget
It support automatic fallback fonts.

Thanks for the info, is there any code demo for the case using multiple fonts? I’m still learning coding that help a lot :rofl:

static juce::TextLayout createTextLayout(const juce::String &text, juce::Justification justification, const juce::Colour &colour, const juce::Font &font, int width, int height)
  {
    juce::TextLayout textLayout;
    juce::AttributedString str(text);
    str.setJustification(justification);
    str.setColour(colour);
    str.setFont(font);
    textLayout.createLayout(str, width, height);
    return textLayout;
  }

  static void drawWithTextLayout(juce::Graphics &g, const juce::String &text, juce::Justification justification, const juce::Colour &colour, const juce::Font &font, int x, int y, int width, int height)
  {
    juce::TextLayout textLayout = createTextLayout(text, justification, colour, font, width, height);
    textLayout.draw(g, juce::Rectangle<int>(x, y, width, height).toFloat());
  }

Here is an example of what I use
