      hello @bahman, have a look at ContoursLock, it allows you to lock individual contours by index. salutations!

      Sometimes when there's an open contour, I'll use the pen tool to continue the contour by clicking on an open point. Sometimes I want to continue from the start point of the contour. But right now, it seems you have to continue from the last point. Can it be made possible to start from either open point? Video demo if unclear TIA, Ryan P.S. I think a similar things exists for contour closure. Sometimes I find myself having to select two open points, close the contour, and then delete one of the points.

      hi I was wondering if there is a way to join two (open) contours with a script. E.g. join last point of contour A with first point of contour B. If I select these points in the glyph-view and click on "Close/Join Open Contours" this works. Is there also a scripting-based way to do that? thanks, jo

      And to reply to your first questions (different rounding behavior for off curves) : This is maybe useful when the offcurves aren't extreme points and the bcp length is rather small (1-2 units). In all other cases, where the points are placed at extreme points this is not really an issue.

      I agree with you guys. My way of drawing involve a lot of "add extreme points + cleanup" method, and it is… painful to work like this in RF. Just a suggestion: on removing a point, maybe the opposite handle should be kept as is, at least? If recalculation of curve is hard, I don't see a reason why both handlelength should be affected. Am I clear? (and yes, FLS' "optimize" algorithm performs well)

      Which is the way to remove points from a script? segment.removePoint(ptindex) is not working (File "lib/fontObjects/robofabWrapper.pyc", line 1413, in removePoint NotImplementedError) Thanks for your help, --jca

      yeah, help is great, didn't know it was available. This will be added in the next version. thanks ps: a small workaround: from defconAppKit.windows.progressWindow import ProgressWindow import pydoc ## this is actually happening in the built-in 'help' pydoc.help(ProgressWindow.update)

      No, trying to close a path for instance. Or to make 2 redudant node one. Currently the snap-to seem to apply to the target node as well.

      This case is unfortunately a consequence from FLS. Superposed nodes: when deleting one of them, the remaining one should inherit the handle length. Instead, a new curve is calculated and differs greatly.
