Hi Zaftrox,
Thank you for raising the issue. Which PyChrono distribution are you
using? Are you building from source or using the conda version?
Best,

i didn't use C++ to code it, i am using pychrono in python.
As i said, i encountered this issue when i tried to use a custom font
for a statictext (Irrlicht rendering).
I prepared the font xml file and png using BMFont and when i called :
pychrono.irrlicht..ChVisualSystemIrrlicht().GetDevice().getGUIEnvironment().getFont(filename),
it throws the error TypeError: in method 'IGUIEnvironment_getFont',
argument 2 of type 'irr::io::path const &' where the filename is the
path "/Physics engine/chrono project/font/fontToUse.xml".
The same goes for addArrowMesh function that i used to setup an origin
for the coords system. However, when i pass the name argument
(something like "X-axis" ...) it throws the same error.

Can you drop your cpp here? A small version that still shows the
problem.
Can you run some demos or other small models? I wonder if this is
an installation issue.
Thanks.

When i try importing a font with getFont(filename) it doesn't
work, throw the following error :

the same happened with GetSceneManager().addArrowMesh(), the
first arg needs to be an 'irr::io::path const &' which throw
an error when passing a string.
