C# RGBLedCanvas.DrawText.

I cannot for the life of me ge the drawText function to work at all. Ive tried the FontExample.cs sample, and even that isnt working, ive even tried using absolute file paths when referencing the font, but to no avail.

Heres a code snippet. This code doesnt doesnt show anything at all.

var font = new RGBLedFont("assets/4x6.bdf");
canvas.Clear();
// canvas.DrawText(font, 1, 6, new Color(0, 255, 0), "Testing font");
canvas.DrawText(font, 10, 10, new Color(0, 255, 0), "Testing font");
font.DrawText(canvas._canvas, 1, 6, new Color(0, 255, 0), "Testing font");
matrix.SwapOnVsync(canvas);

However it would apear that the following is working:

canvas.DrawLine(0,0,canvas.Width,canvas.Height, new Color(255, 0, 0));
canvas.DrawLine(0,canvas.Height,canvas.Width,0, new Color(0, 255, 0));
matrix.SwapOnVsync(canvas);

As a long shot, did you copy the font files to the output directory? (Build Action - Content) Or, when using absolute paths, did you have rights to read the files? (Unix systems)
