I’m attempting to create a text input, in this case only for iOS. I am trying to use DIN Alternate Bold font. However, the text always appears very tiny, regardless of what I set fontSize too. If I use an alternative font, like Avenir Book - also ios font - or just the native font. The text size can be changed.
UPDATE: This is limited to the corona simulator. ios simulator and device correctly render this font.
Is there any reason DIN Alternate Bold cannot support changes to font size in Version: 3.0.0 Build: 2014.2189 or corona sdk?
