      It true that scaling would result in floating coordinates. But I would rather see advantages in keeping the coordinates with floating numbers. If one has a set of transformations the result would be much better if floating numbers are used instead round the coordinates after each step. use glyph.round() Output will always round all coordinates.

      With swap you move the current layer to an other layer. Flipping would also move the layer glyph to the source layer. The action menu in the layer inspector pane will be gone in the next version. but you can still use: g = CurrentGlyph() g.flipLayers("foreground", "background")

      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)

      Will be in the next update, but only on mouse down, and not while dragging the "magnetic" contour selection (otherwise it will only be flipping the selection while dragging)

      The beta for 1.3 hides the inspector window when it's already open. So one can close and open the inspector window with the same short cut.

      I think in version 1.4 this is still reversed (& hot keys cannot include arrows). Should I really move to the Southern Hemisphere?

      mm, you can make a subclass of the EditTool and overwrite the modifyDraggingPoint(point, delta) method to ignore 45° and only look for 0° and 90° angles. But not pref settings (yet, will think about it)

      Also, both large and small images disappear, as I said, but the smaller the image, the further I have to zoom out to make it reappear. I hope that is a meaningful clue for you.

      Would be handy if 'Anchors' become always visible after an anchor has been added. Currently 'Anchors' remain invisible once they are.

      from Matthieu's email: What I mean by slow down is that every time I place a point, there's a lag between placing it and pulling the handle. This should be immediate, which is the case when there isn't any bitmap image. There is a tiny distance that the mouse has to move before a bcp is added. RoboFont is doing so to prevent unnecessary adding bcp. But it seems like the zoom level isnt really taking into account to calculate the minimal mouse dragged distance in order to create/add a new bcp hope this make sense and will be solved in the next version. thanks

      the outline selection ability disappears when a big zoom-out view is active: you can still use the keyboard, but click-select and drag is not possible because outline view is simplified :(
