hello @FosterType, this has been fixed, please upgrade to the final 3.4 release. cheers!

hello @jansindl3r, the current guideline is only available from an interactive tool. here’s an example: (shift-click guide to flip direction) from mojo.events import EditingTool, installTool class FlipGuideTool(EditingTool): def getToolbarTip(self): return "flip guide" def mouseDown(self, point, clickCount): g = CurrentGlyph() guides = CurrentGuidelines() if guides and self.shiftDown: guides[0].angle += 90 installTool(FlipGuideTool()) cheers!

Cool. Are there any existing methods I can use to implement this on individual guides with a custom tool? Thanks!

Sometimes when a guideline is moved, the undo will not work. Also sometimes, the name is erased. I can reproduce with both local and global guides. Video Version 3.3 (build 1911061105)

oops... yes that worked! thank you

Yes! Thanks @frederik & all :) Looking forward to it.

Yeah there it is.

Hey Gustavo, Thanks for that, works great. D

oh, typo, Ive edited it out, thanks!

FYI: in the upcoming release RF3.1 both the magnetic as the show measurements attributes of a guideline will be part of the preferences: defaultGuidelineShowMeasurment defaultGuidelineMagnetic to change the default use, or the preference json editor (alt click the Preferences menu item): from mojo.ui import setDefault setDefault("defaultGuidelineMagnetic", 0)

I see, thanks for reporting

follow up: Also if you scale the blues in the font by a factor the value become <real> in the fontinfo instead of <integer>. Now you can not edit them in the fontinfo window anymore... So be sure to int(here_a_blue_value)

Thanks!

I've noticed that if you specify an angle for a guide it is oriented to the x axis, so a vertical guide is 90°. That makes sense except that when you specify the italic angle it is oriented to the y axis, which means a -11° italic angle translates an 79° guide. It's easy to do the math (subtracting from 90), but maybe would be more clear oriented to y.

nope, use guides and enable "Show Measurements"

undo works on a glyph level. Global guides are font level. Be careful :) or lock guides and unlock them only when you need them good luck
