If its not what you had in mind, or if you have any other ideas for extensions, let me know.

I'm not yet satisfied with how it updates control points adjacent to "merged" points.

cool!

Move your scripts that have callbacks from the menu to the root folder.
From there you can import everything inside a RoboFont extension.

You're saying that any script that corresponds to a menu item needs to be in the root folder (ie. the "script root" in the Extension Builder)?

scripting Root
- test.py          # test can import testFolder and all sub py files  
- testFolder                 
  - __init__.py
  - otherFile.py   # otherFile can not import test.py or otherTestFolder
- otherTestFolder
  - __init__.py

hope this makes sense

Alternately, RoboFont could add the root folder of the extension to the python path when it invokes a script from that extension.

I'm not sure how you're invoking extension scripts in Robofont...

Anyhow, I've reorganized the extension per your suggestion.

Thanks

mm, I think this will be a mess after a while.

It's already super easy to add a path to sys.path :)

from defconAppKit.windows.progressWindow import ProgressWindow

# CurrentFontWindow is only available only in RoboFont 1.3
from mojo.UI import CurrentFontWindow

import time

progress = ProgressWindow("my progress")
time.sleep(2)
progress.close()

## attach as sheet to a window
progress = ProgressWindow("my progress", parentWindow=CurrentFontWindow().window())
time.sleep(2)
progress.update("action....")
time.sleep(2)
progress.close()

## with tickcount
count = 20
progress = ProgressWindow("my progress", tickCount=count)

for i in range(count):
    time.sleep(.1)
    progress.update("action....%s" %i)
    
progress.close()

for i in range(count):
    time.sleep(.1)
    progress.update("action....%s" %i)

You're formatting a string with an int but using the string format descriptor: %s
Also, shouldn't progress.update() take an int argument?

Lastly,

from mojo.UI import CurrentFontWindow

Yields:

importError: cannot import name CurrentFontWindow

in RoboFont 1.2

CurrentFontWindow is only available only in RoboFont 1.3

from defconAppKit.windows.progressWindow import ProgressWindow
print dir(ProgressWindow)
help(ProgressWindow.update)

Yields:

NameError: name 'help' is not defined

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)
