  the font.lib is also possible but then its hard to have the global undo manager focus. The current undo manager is connected to the current glyph. good luck!

  Ah ok, great. Good to know the command is still a modifier and not access to RSB as I had thought for some reason. Thanks, Frederik.

  I see. Yes that appears to change the reference point for the transformation, but it still transforms all off-curves. With a script, do you mean creating a custom transform tool? It would be great if there were a preference that is point-type-agnostic transformation as well

  @RafaŁ-Buchner you’re right :) better to use the boolean glyph method then.

  Hi @gferreira. I already gave it a try and it is working great for me! I'm going to work on a script that will automatically create a list of similar shapes so that I could import them into the extension. Thank you so so much again!

  Ahhh yes, I use alt in basically every shortcut I create, so I don't have to worry about overriding others. Maybe there could be a setting that would enable/disable this feature? If I want to edit a script, I don't find it that cumbersome to navigate to it in the scripting window.

  😄 This was excellent to find as the top post today. RoboFont forum titles might be my favorite usage of this. I wonder if that would wreck the SEO, though ...

  @tal said in Copying uppercase to lowercase (including kerning), and auto-add unicodes: Here's a little demo script that will copy kerning. Hmm, at least initially, when run, that causes an error: File "lib/fontObjects/doodleKerning.pyc", line 13, in _set_dirty mm4.MetricsMachineError: Glyph a is in more than one side 1 group. For now, I'll do some (partially) manual things in MetricsMachine to sort out kerning. I'll loop back with a suggested fix if I can loop back and figure something out!
