He you can add a start up script that will add some root folders to the sys.path import sys sys.path.append("my/path/to/my/module") this module will then be available inside RoboFont to update the module without restarting: import myModule reload(myModule) good luck

Well, in this case I don't need it (thought shouldn't it work?) I didn't find glyph.removeCountour() in robofab's documentation :[ Thanks!

He This will also not work in robofab :) You can check if a glyphName is in the font: f = CurrentFont() gname = "test" if gname in f: print gname else: # f[gname] not in f print "%s not in %s" % (gname, f) good luck

Yes, this is exactly what I need right now! Thanks so much Frederik! Franz

Ok, convinced :-) It's a floating window now. Just pushed 1.1 to github: http://github.com/franzheidl/SidebearingsEQ

Thanks a lot, it does the trick. Note to users: ## print them nicely means with a wordspace between each glyph. For proofing, I need to get rid of the space, so I simply removed it between the quotes: print " ".join(allGlyphs) → print "".join(allGlyphs)

Why is info a dict instead of an instance of a reall class defined in mojo.events? I ask about source code because __doc__ seems to be empty for all the mojo.* modules and classes, and the API documentation is missing a lot. I'm looking for a way to supplement my understanding of the API without asking you a hundred questions.

Yes there will only work in RoboFont, but some have some similarities with the special FL robofab methods. It doesnt matter if you imported it from mojo.roboFont or robofab.world (inside RoboFont) all robofab object will have these additions.

He Ben If you have a python package installed in the current python on your local machine, that package will be accessible in RoboFont. RoboFont is adding the site-packages of the current python to the sys.path. So if you have a python package that can read from a serial port it must be possible to access that package in RoboFont good luck!

UFOCentral also relies on this technique, no? No. That's a symptom of FL's interface problem, not a feature of the script.

solved in the next version :) thanks for reporting

thanks frederik! that workaround will certainly do for now...

The object-browser is great! Thanks.

in case it is helpful: it seems like the workaround you provided works with glyphs that contain outlines, but not with glyphs that only contain components (for example accents in my font) f = CurrentFont() f['aacute'].selected = True f['a'].selected = True the code above, run when all glyphs are shown, will select a but not aacute.

Thank you!

Thanks for reporting, will be solved in the next release (1.3)

thanks, great tips for code style guidelines see http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/

ah typo, good catch

I think this has been fixed in the update now, works here :)

Damn, without switching on Display Anchors, it's hard to see them ;-) I think I'm set to switch and work mostly in RoboFont, thank you for your help Bruno.
