UNSOLVED Metrics Machine Reference Groups



  • Hi Frederik,

    I'm noticing that the Metrics Machine extension does not support reference groups.

    Are there plans for implementing support for this important feature?

    Traceback below:

    Traceback (most recent call last):

  • All groups except pulic.kern groups should be shown in the reference group editor.

    Was this possible in the UFO2 version of MetricsMachine?
    Is there a traceback?

  • Thanks Frederik! Works great.

    I noticed one other thing: it's not possible to copy reference groups using the import feature in the Reference Group editor. Only the public.kern groups show up.

    I can copy Reference Groups by editing the groups.plist, but that's not ideal.

    I’ve just fixed this, please update Metrics Machine with Mechanic.

    thanks!
