Hi, Just checking in on this thread to note for posterity that "all" works again when setting the Display Option: f = CurrentFont() for layer in f.layers: layer.setDisplayOption("all", False) I'm on Beta Version 3.3b (build 1910021654)

Awesome thank you so much!

Have you tried stacking horizontally? Ah ha! This is exactly what I was looking for. Didn't expect to see it under that name, though. :D Thanks!

Gustavo, thank you a lot! It works!

I didn't know about spaceCenterInputSamples and managed to get at them through the space center window itself. I should probably look at updating these: https://gist.github.com/okay-type/6e36bfd93e938f5f98253ab31a27f24e https://gist.github.com/okay-type/85e6f60fc35092d5a6249ee26b2bdd4c

Is the explanation clear?

FYI: if you need to install a package for a specific python you can use pip3.6 install numpy

Lately I've been doing this a lot: need some text based on some font data write some code to print some text based on some font data run the code select the text in the output copy the text paste the text where I need the text I got tired of this, so I added some startup code* to RoboREPL that establishes some always-available functions to ease my laziness: from AppKit import NSPasteboard, NSPasteboardTypeString def toclipboard(text): pasteboard = NSPasteboard.generalPasteboard() pasteboard.declareTypes_owner_([NSPasteboardTypeString], None) pasteboard.setString_forType_(text, NSPasteboardTypeString) def fromclipboard(): pasteboard = NSPasteboard.generalPasteboard() text = pasteboard.stringForType_(NSPasteboardTypeString) return text Usage: >>> toclipboard("\n".join(CF().selection)) Then, paste it with ⌘V. Maybe something like this could be injected into the namespace in which all scripts are executed and/or added to mojo†? * >>> settings.editStartupCode() † …if something like this isn't already in mojo.

Hey guys, somehow I cannot roll out the popUpButton menu item. Any idea how can I do that? import AppKit import vanilla from mojo.UI import MenuBuilder def callback(sender): print(sender) def popUpButtonCallback(sender): print(sender.get()) popUpButtonMenuItem = AppKit.NSMenuItem.alloc().initWithTitle_action_keyEquivalent_("popUpButton", '', '') popUpButton = vanilla.PopUpButton((0, 0, 100, 30), ['a','b','v'] ,callback=popUpButtonCallback) view = popUpButton.getNSPopUpButton() view.setFrame_(((0, 0), (100, 30))) popUpButtonMenuItem.setView_(view) builder = MenuBuilder([ ("test", callback), ("test 2", callback), ("test 3", callback), popUpButtonMenuItem, ]) menu = builder.getMenu() print(menu) name = "My Menu With popUpButton" # get the menu bar menubar = AppKit.NSApp().mainMenu() newItem = menubar.itemWithTitle_(name) if not newItem: # if not, create one and append it before `Help` newItem = AppKit.NSMenuItem.alloc().initWithTitle_action_keyEquivalent_(name, '', '') menubar.insertItem_atIndex_(newItem, menubar.numberOfItems()-1) menu.setTitle_(name) # set the menu as submenu newItem.setSubmenu_(menu)

Hey guys, I created a small script that makes sorting contours easy (at least for me) https://gist.github.com/RafalBuchner/ff73b03d1c2970182d7dbe1d6060d32b Everyone, feel free to use that. I'm not sure about the usage of the Pens though: is drawing in rearrangeOrder function done accordingly to the proper way of using pen-protocol? I was improvising a bit and I'm not sure about it. I'm working from time to time with point labels. The pen object created by me is deleting data like that: Is there any good way to make sure that when redrawing the glyph none of the data like that will be erased? Best, R

thanks a lot!

@connor I think i recall @benkiel had some relevant mastering experience with Vēlo... Any tips, Ben?

Ahhh very nice. Thank you for letting me know!

hello @RafaŁ-Buchner, yes, I think it’s a good idea to remove the observer in your code. here’s what the defcon documentation says: Don’t Forget removeObserver The only real gotcha in this is that you must remove the observer from the observed object when the observation is no longer needed. If you don’t do this and the observed object is changed, it will try to post a notification to the object you have discarded. That could lead to trouble. and here’s an example script in which the defcon Glyph.Changed observer is removed when the current glyph changes.

hi @erik, there’s CheckParallelTool, but it checks only if the lines connecting on-curve and off-curve points in curve segments are parallel. (checking parallel segments is mentioned in the to-do list)

hello @mr, this seems to work: from mojo.UI import AllFontWindows f = AllFonts().getFontsByStyleName('Italic')[0] for fontWindow in AllFontWindows(): if fontWindow._font == f.naked(): fontWindow.window().show() cheers!

Hi Gustavo, thank you! Ok, that explains it. I assumed the lock was for each glyph separately.

Thanks for the breakdown, @colinmford! I suspected that to be the case, but it's helpful to have it confirmed. Very good point on the SSD. I haven't had a spinning-disk hard drive for awhile, but yes, I could see that really degrading performance for UFOs. Hmm, interesting hack on running multiple instances of RoboFont! On certain file-processing workflows, I might try to take advantage of that...

oh my god, I'm really blind o_O
