      the order is important: py stops looking for packages if there is one found strange you can not acces those packages: could you send a screenshot of that folder? everything should be at root level, not in a sub folder inside external_packages

      @frederik Hate to bring up Ill*strator, but I actually think it handles this pretty well (no pun intended).

      Hi there! Had a thought to potentially improve the experience of maintaining the handle angle while command is held down: Situation: I command-drag handles to maintain handle angle. Bug: Angle inconsistent, and once I bring it back past the on-curve, it locks to 0-degrees, not the desired angle. Suggestion: Can the angle maintenance be improved? It looks like it’s constantly recalculating the angle as it moves. This causes it to change over time due to rounding errors. Of course, rounding will make it never perfect, but maybe the angle could be stored once on commandDown + mouseDown, so it doesn’t jump around so much and will always relate to the original intended angle. Angle changes over time, even though I haven’t let go of command. TIA, Ryan

      A couple of things can go wrong... try to get a fresh download what is your OS? what is the traceback when you double click the file: RoboFont.app/Contents/MacOS/RoboFont after a right click on the app 'Show Package Contents'

      @frederik I too have this issue of test installed fonts becoming unavailable after some time. The time they are available varies, sometimes they are gone quickly, other times they hold somewhat longer. Would you have any updates for that issue?

      Shoot, so... actually, those backslashes single quotes get re-added each time I save, close, and reopen the JSON preferences. So, basically, each time I edit JSON prefs and save, I get this same error, and have to re-fix it. I guess I’ll change the single quote strings to use the glyph name /quotesingle instead of the Unicode.

      python 2 is not an option :) RF 3+ is build with python 3. The bug has to be solved in the repository... and you have to fix your interpolation error in your drawing anyhow :)

      The guideline.identifier issue on undo/cut/paste is a different problem :(. Something that is using subscriber is doing something wrong. Im looking at your Eyeliner extension and aside from the scale vs merz symbols, I would not change that much. My biggest guess is that you have multiple versions of your subscriber instances open, those are receiving a callback on Glyph.Changed but the internal dict has already changed or cleaned up. While developing its recommended to set the debug flag to True in your class.
