CanvasFontSet throws in Unpackaged apps

[mattleibow]

Description

I am trying to load a font in an unpackaged app:

using var fontSet = new CanvasFontSet(new Uri("ms-appx:///Fontawesome6brands.otf"));

This results in an exception:

System.ArgumentException: Value does not fall within the expected range.

I have the same issue when loading Font file (with unpackaged app WinApp SDK 1.2)

It looks like it's a bug in the SDK when you try to use resources or content via ms-appx:///

I tried many possible options, specified the absolute path to the file, but ABI.System.Uri.СreateMarshaller(...) throws an exception.

As soon as you make the application packaged, everything works.

@mattleibow This looks fixed. Can you close this issue?

Hi

Was this actually fixed ? I still have the issue here with .NET 7 and WinAppSDK (1.5.240428000)
