It will not work in Menu Buttons as-is because you need to create the Menu Button specific appearance entries in your Appearance.js file (or this file that my project provided: https://github.com/sqville/sqv/blob/master/source/class/sqv/fonticon/FontAwesome/Appearance.js)
Here's what i mean. Search qooxdoo's simple Appearance js file (https://github.com/qooxdoo/qooxdoo/blob/master/framework/source/class/qx/theme/simple/Appearance.js) for "menu-button". You'll see many entries that support the themeing of the menu button. Changing any of these would change the look and feel of ALL of your app's menu buttons. Not good if you want just one of your menu buttons to have a search font icon. What i did for button is the same thing you will need to do for menu-button. Copy all of the menu-button related appearance entries from the simple theme into my FontAwesome/Appearance.js file and rename them to "search-menu-button". Menu Buttons are more complex than Buttons, but use my "search-button" as a guide. It will help you to get closer to the solution your looking to implement. ...and i'm here to help you as much as i can along the way :-) Chris -- View this message in context: http://qooxdoo.678.n2.nabble.com/FontAwesome-font-icons-for-qx-Desktop-tp7587151p7587783.html Sent from the qooxdoo mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ qooxdoo-devel mailing list qooxdoo-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/qooxdoo-devel
