Custom Font, No Support for setFakeBold/TextSkewX

We use a TextView with a custom font. There are a lot of Spans with normal ASCII letters mixed with our custom symbols. Some text are bold or italic.

text##aaa (# - our special symbol from Unicode Private Area. Fallback is correct.)

Everything works fine. We just override the font in UpdateDrawState.

private void ApplyTypeFace(TextPaint ds)

{

    ds.UnderlineText = false;



    ds.FakeBoldText = m_bBold;

    if (m_bItalic)

        ds.TextSkewX = -0.25f;

    else

        ds.TextSkewX = 0;



    if (m_bFrColorSet)

        ds.Color = m_frColor;

    if (m_bBgColorSet)

        ds.BgColor = m_bgColor;



    ds.SetTypeface(m_fnt);

}

Today a customer with Bejing WowPad with Android 2.1 reported an issue.

setFakeBoldText(true) misses the ASCII (fallback from default font). No ASCII characters are shown . setTextSkewX(-0.25) is ignored.

Can I check the support of these features?
