Resources and theming

Tick UI loads fonts, icons, and shaders through provider assets, and you customise the look of your UI through the same assets.

The pages in this section:

  • Resource providers: the composite chain, lookup order, and how the bundled DefaultTickConfig fits in.
  • Generate a font atlas: bake an MSDF atlas and metrics from a .ttf/.otf with the Font Atlas Generator window.
  • Add a custom font: the procedure for registering one font with the chain.
  • Author a resource provider asset: create the GUIResourceProvider asset, populate the field set, and use the bulk-import toggles for fonts and images.
  • Theming: colour palettes, icon swaps, and runtime overlays for locale or theme.

For the visual primitives that consume these resources, refer to Drawing.
