  @d7yrr ok. as I suspected :) there’s an issue with the latest build in macOS Mojave; @frederik is looking into it. a warning for Mojave users has been added to the Downloads page. please try using one of the previous builds – that should fix the performance problems you are experiencing. thanks for reporting it. let us know if you still have any problems.

  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.
