I've been using the Font Awesome widget, but it only works for v4 icons. I'm not familiar enough with widget programming to update the widget. Also, I don't see the Font Awesome widget in the marketplace anymore.

Or, is there a way of incorporating Font Awesome icons without the widget?

Hi @Timo697.

The Font Awesome extension has in fact been removed from the Marketplace. There are no known plans to replace it.

However, you can request this functionality by posting a suggestion on the ThingWorx Ideas board. This will allow others to vote for it which will improve it's chances of being considered for a future release of the product.

Hi @Timo697.

Without the knowledge to develop your own widget, you may reach out to our Sales team for engaging with a member of our professional services team. They can assess your needs and walk you through the development process, or simply the develop the extension per your requirements.

If that is not an option for you, another community member may be able to provide an extension that meets your needs.

I used to be able to find the Font Awesome widget in the Marketplace. If memory serves, it was developed by ThingWorx Labs. That is why I asked if ThingWorx is now able to use the Font Awesome icons without the widget. And, if not, is there a replacement planned?
