## Platform support

Defold FontScale currently supports Android and iOS. On all other platforms, it'll return `1.0`.

Contributions are welcome!

## Installation

You can use Defold FontScale by adding it as a [library dependency](https://defold.com/manuals/libraries/#setting-up-library-dependencies) in your project:

- Use a specific version for development and release to avoid breaking changes: https://github.com/myopic-design/defold-fontscale/releases

- Use the latest version only while evaluating and testing the asset: https://github.com/myopic-design/defold-fontscale/archive/master.zip.

## Usage

Get the font scaling factor with `fontscale.get()`, and then apply it to whatever nodes you want:

```lua

if fontscale then

  local scale = fontscale.get()

  go.set("#label", "scale", vmath.vector3(scale, scale, 0))

end

```
