TouchKit/NavigationButton setCaptionAsHtml

Setting this flag on the Navigation button appears to have no effect. I am trying to use a FontIcon so I am trying to get the same behavior out of the NavigationButton as if I had set setHtmlContentAllowed(true) on a regular button. I thought this method might do it, but nothing. Is there some workaround to achieve the same thing? Thanks

Try simply using navigationButton.setIcon(FontAwesome.SMTH).

Thanks I’m aware of that option but I’m using a custom icon font so I really need this button to implement its setCaptionAsHtml API
