I cannot reproduce the word: example... (both 10.13 and 10.15) You are sure there is no third party text replacement app interacting while typing?

startUpScripts are added to the prefs as list of .py files paths, hosted somewhere on the users HD. There is no folder as such... just a list of .py files that should be executed during app launch.

hello @connor, was it working before the update to 3.3? are you sure the file is saved with utf-8 encoding? thanks for any additional info

There is also the -gs flag in makeotf, which makes the compiler only export the glyphs in GlyphOrderAndAliasDB file. You can checkout makeotf -h.

Cool. Thank you for fixing this, and thank you for the explanation.

Looking forward to seeing this get fixed. Thank you @frederik.

Sometimes when a guideline is moved, the undo will not work. Also sometimes, the name is erased. I can reproduce with both local and global guides. Video Version 3.3 (build 1911061105)

Sometimes when there's an open contour, I'll use the pen tool to continue the contour by clicking on an open point. Sometimes I want to continue from the start point of the contour. But right now, it seems you have to continue from the last point. Can it be made possible to start from either open point? Video demo if unclear TIA, Ryan P.S. I think a similar things exists for contour closure. Sometimes I find myself having to select two open points, close the contour, and then delete one of the points.

cool! an different approache! I like it

@oribendor @frederik This thread may be related. However, I haven't experienced this issue lately. Hope this helps connect some dots.

This should be solved in the upcoming release, and already works fine in the cutting-edge-nightly-build version...

Thank you all for sharing this! Would it make sense to also include Italic Slant Offset to the attributes at the bottom of the script? I remember this caused issues for me once after scaling a font.

@frederik Yeah that is very powerful. I have another related question. let's say I want my custom method to be executed every time an object changes. I don't want to add a defcon notification but rather override a method and use the super on an internal method of glyph object, then execute my own method. I looked at defcon but it seemed that it's only possible by overriding _set_dirty, but not sure if that's the right way. What do you think?

@gferreira I'll give the beta a try tomorrow if I can get some time to work.

Re: Floating Inspector palette I'd like to resurface Mark's older observation about the behavior of the Inspector palette and its functions. I'm still a new user, but the fact that using the tools/controls in Inspector takes the focus away from my open document—whether I'm in single or multi-window mode—has become a prominent distraction. Is this the result of a tradeoff, does this choice allow some other feature or function that is more important but less visible to this novice's eye?

Can I please suggest that the fields in MetricsMachine use a legible font? I'm not certain on details but it seems SF UI has an option for a legibility setting – at least I know Georg implemented it in Glyphs App: vs

@gferreira Editing binary of U not solved the problem. This time it throws an error for u. After removing both Udieresis and udieresis characters it compiled successfuly. How I solve my problem? I created a new font file and move all glyps to the new font file then compile.

Is there anywhere I might read more about scripts involving Metrics Machine? The next version of the current extension will have a scripting API. We're going to release it very soon.

FYI: if you need to install a package for a specific python you can use pip3.6 install numpy

Ah it looks like I'm only able to get build 1906031450 from both links on this page. It looked like both the "download latest beta" button as well as the build 1906031450 both link to the same DMG. Is there somewhere else I can get my hands on 1909120913? Thanks again!
