Component Preview Outline
-
Hi,
Is there a way (UI or script wise) to remove the white outline from the way components are rendered in the preview pane of Inspector?
Thanks

Sorry I didn’t reply earlier. I really like the new configuration! Will gladly wait for the implementation. The white outlines are maybe a bit too disturbing for some use cases.

there have been some discussions on the beta list about this:
the next implementation will be:
components in dark gray and hard contours in black. it will be almost not visible when there are only components but when ever there is a mix of contours and components it clear.if you have other ideas you could send me your configuration (use inside DrawBot)
from defcon import Font from fontTools.pens.cocoaPen import CocoaPen # set a path path = u"path/to/my/Font-Regular.ufo" # get the font font = Font(path) # get a glyph both with a contour and a component glyph = font["tcaron"] # background fill (same color as the window) fill(237/255) # draw rect with the size of the canvas rect(0, 0, width(), height()) translate(100, 100) scale(.8) # fill with black fill(0) # get a pen pen = CocoaPen(font) # draw the glyph in the pen glyph.draw(pen) # draw the pen.path drawPath(pen.path) # new pen componentPen = CocoaPen(font) # draw only the components in that pen for component in glyph.components: component.draw(componentPen) # set a fill # component fill color # 50% black with a 30% alpha value fill(.5, .5) #stroke(1) # draw the compontens path drawPath(componentPen.path)
