How to handle the error message "FontFamily bestFont == NULL, so return vacant FakedFont"

Question

I've taken over a project from another programmer, and I've noticed that every time some UI gets loaded (fragment, listview reload, etc), the log gets spammed with dozens of

D/Minikin: FontFamily bestFont == NULL, so return vacant FakedFont

messages.

Now, the app seems to work just fine, but it would be nice if I could solve the problem, so the log doesn't get spammed.

The app does use custom fonts, so that might have something to do with it, but I can't for the life of me see what might be wrong. The words "FontFamily", "bestFont" and "FakedFont" aren't used anywhere in the project.

if you can't find something with the words you said, have you tried to clean your project after the changes u've made? — Antonios Tsimourtos, Aug 08 '16 at 10:44

Probably your app uses this framework, and it writes this message to logs. So, you can't remove that since it's not inside your code.

However, you can exclude lines with tag named Minikin from logcat. See the following for how to achieve that: https://stackoverflow.com/a/29634795/5250273
