      Hi Andrew you added those kerning values inside RoboFont, with the Kern Center? You created the groups? I cannot reproduce this issue, could you send me a erroneous ufo file?

      hello jens, thanks for your help. in fact your example is what "happened" in my case. I did some very quick kerning without groups. Later on I replaced the single letters of the pairs with groups through a script. I also wanted to remove the original pair but the zero value was "overwriting" the group value. so i guess it could work with kerning update etc but the "del" way worked just fine. cheers, jo

      He Ian Try to add a kerning pair with the + button at the bottom. All your kerning groups, starting with a @ will be listed in the combo box see http://doc.robofont.com/documentation/workspace/metrics/kern-center/ good luck!

      I don't know the difference! But in fontlab when I open a font, in the kern feature I can see that LTR kerning is interpreted like this: pos uni0631 uni0628 -225; But RTL kerning is interpreted like this: pos uni0631 uni0628 <-225 0 -225 0>; So I suppose RTL kerning should be implemented with adjustments applied to position of the glyph too, maybe I'm wrong; I'm not a pro. (see AFDKO OpenType Feature File Specification) About the kerning in RoboFont, I think there is a malfunction in the "Right to left" Option in the kerning panel. Here is what I do: I open a font which already has RTL kerning, Robofont interprets kerning correctly. I open the kerning panel and click on a class pair, the kerning shows up but order of glyphs is incorrect, I turn the "Right to Left" option on; Nothing Happens! I turn it off, now order of glyphs becomes right, even so the kerning has been implemented in RTL order.

      Merci. Indeed, there is some group-group and glyph-group and glyph-glyph kerning. So no way to get directly a value out the ufo? Will try the temp dict. Thanks Frederik!

      The kerning keys can be either glyph names or group names. If they are group names (starting with an @) you can edit them in with the groups objects f = CurrentFont() f.groups["@MMK_L_f"] Its possible that this group isn't not in your groups but already hard coded into the features. (normally MM is adding those kerning groups also as font.groups items) note: RoboFont does not automatically convert font.groups to feature groups. Use this extension for converting and adding groups to the feature file: http://github.com/typemytype/RoboFontExtensions/tree/master/groups2Features good luck

      Hi there, The groups created in RF are used as "reference groups" in MM, right? Why not directly as 'standard' groups usable for kerning?
