Icons not rendering correctly in Windows 8

Opened this issue · 10 comments

Not all icons seem to render correctly in Windows 8, this has been tested in Chrome, Firefox and IE11.

Icons seem to cause more problems than they are worth. In future versions I'm going to remove baked in icons and let people decide on that themselves.

@CMNDO Do you have any insight on this? Being the Gumby Windows guy! ;)

Confirm Win 8 but only on Chrome:

I am facing same issue?

Just applied this fix locally on a project and confirmed that it completely resolves the issue.

@iso100 This fix creates issues on Firefox and Chrome on Android. I still see some bad fonts in Chrome (desktop) too. Have a look at the 'icon-down-open' icon for example, that doesn't render properly. On some browsers it displays Japanese letters!

This is a pretty serious issue. Any ETA on a fix from Gumby/Entypo teams?

I'm missing about half the icons on safari/chrome/phonegap app on the 1st gen iPad (don't judge).

Hi all, I swapped out your entypo icons with the entypo icons / css from icomoon.io app, works perfect on windows 8 and app browsers

I have reverted to a working css file from a year or so ago and just use the icons out of that.

A gist is here https://gist.github.com/Depicus/6e7c5ea1d9e01024ebb4 then just remove the icons from the current css and it all seems to work for me.

Can you try the latest version of Gumby? I just merged in a pull request that hopefully fixes this. The issue is that Sass compiles strings like "\0f00" to the actual UTF8 character rather than leaving it alone as a string. OSX usually has no problems with this, but Windows does. I've yet to figure out how to fix this but would appreciate a PR if one you guys could figure it out.
