[solved] how to set local fonts

[p3c0]

No.. Just use as it is as shown earlier. It will just print a list of fonts available under Tamil Writingsystem.

[sasireka]

@QFontDatabase label1;
foreach(QString fmly, label1.families(QFontDatabase::Tamil))
{
//qDebug("சென்னை") << fmly;
qDebug("சென்னை");
ui->label1->show();
}@

no output. getting blank.

I'm not a developer. I'm using Telegram app for instant messaging. I believe it uses Qt interface. In Debian, we have something called 'qt5ct' through which we can change Qt interface settings. When I change the font in qt5ct, it gets reflected in KDE applications like Kate editor. But not in Telegram. Telegram is also installed using the apt package manager, not the AppImage one.
