Hi all, I am trying to change the default font for my app on macOS. From the ApplicationWindow documentation, it says that the "font" property can be changed by setting the QGuiApplication font prior to loading the QML. Here is what I did ( and obviously it did not work seems I am here ;) ): QFontDatabase::addApplicationFont( ":/fonts/myfont.otf" ) QFont font( "MyFontFamily" ); QGuiApplication::setFont( font ); QQmlApplicationEngine engine; engine.load( QUrl( QLatin1String( "qrc:/main.qml" ) ) ); If I print QGuiApplication::font() , it is the one I added using setFont . However if I print font property of ApplicationWindow once completed it is: QFont(.SF NS Text,13,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0) If anyone as an idea. Otherwise I will set it right in the QML but I'd like not to.

Hi, Did you check that the font was successfully added to the font database ? Is it really "MyFontFamily" ?
