<![CDATA[Intentional/In Progress/Preferences]]>Wanted to ask whether a couple of things below are intentional or necessary changes, being worked on or whether preferences can control them somewhere.

Sidebearings on copy/paste
In previous versions of RF, if you copied a glyph outline and pasted it into another layer, it also copied the sidebearings. This doesn't seem to happen anymore.

Visualising guidelines
When entering a higher magnification than about 150%, my guidelines just disappear completely. They also appear in different thicknesses at different magnifications.

Can you specify the build?

Sidebearings on copy/paste

Can you provide some glif xml or a ufo to see the guideline values?

Or a screenshot of the different thicknesses?

thanks!
