Icon Font
UBIK-Standard.ttf is a custom set of font icons developed primarily for use on the Xamarin Client, due to concerns over the legality of using Microsoft's Segoe MDL2 Assets icon font file on non-Windows platforms (ie. Android and iOS). Apart from this legal concern, having a standardized font icon set will contribute to having a more consistent look across the various platforms, clients, once UBIK-Standard.ttf becomes more widely used in both standard builds, and individual customizings.
 | The latest font set can be downloaded directly from here using the UBIK-Standard.zip file. |

Other Fonts
UBIK-Standard is an Icon Font. Recommended text fonts for UBIK customizing is Barlow on UWP/Large-format tablets, or Inter on mobile phones and small screens.
Known Issues
The development of the custom icon font on the Xamarin client was hampered significantly by unexpected icon substitutions, which appeared to be vender/device-specific. To avoid this issue, the individual icons in the text file were mapped to the Hex codes used by the most basic alphabet and symbol characters.
A second issue was encountered where using unstable behavior was observed when using UBIK-Standard.ttf in FontIcons, and while using the "Label=" attribute. -Ask Liang-
Usage
The first full version of the icon set was completed in September 2019. The tables on this page show the icons, along with a description of their intended purpose (some have multiple), and the natural language In-App Name, and Hex code suffix, both of which can be used to call the icons using XAML.
Using XAML, Glyphs can be called in two ways. One method is to use the Hex Code, and another is the In-App Name. The two below examples show how one might use both methods to create a User symbol.
Hex Code Usage:
In the below example, the attribute Glyph=" and the following Hex Code is used to call the User icon. These Hex codes can be found using a Character Map program, or by searching through the icon tables below.
 | WikiFormatting prevents the entire Hex Code from being displayed in the tables, so a space was used to break the glyph code. Please remove the space when using the Hex Codes from the table. |
In-AppName Usage:
In the below example, "UBIKIcons.Service" is used to call the symbol for Service or Group.
Glyph="{x:Static resources:UBIKIcons.User}"
PrimaryColor="{DynamicResource UBIKLightThemeColor}"
SecondaryColor="{DynamicResource UBIKDarkThemeColor}"
Style="{DynamicResource UBIKSymbolLabel}"
VerticalOptions="Center" />
