Does this solve all reported issues?

Yes, all of these issues have been resolved nicely, thank you for your help!

Consider it done with the next upcoming release. Thanks for the timely update (2979), but it seems that the same type of controls of other components don't get the same functionality. And these components are also very much in need of the quick-entry feature. 001.gif In the latest update, the 'Zoom...

Thank you for your quick response and wise decision

The function to quickly change the range of values by scrolling the mouse wheel in the text edit box is very useful to quickly move or preview the font effect.
When will this feature be reverted in version 15?

We have just released an update, so it is available in the context menu. Thank you for your timely update. Sorry to bother you again, but in version 15.0.2952 released on December 1, the Align or Distribute context menu in Point Mode have disappeared again and only appear in Contour Mode. I have ex...

5.2 The control lines look thicker and chunkier than the glyph outline line, which is not only a visual effect problem, but also functionally masks problems with the glyph lines, such as the lines are slightly non-vertical or non-horizontal. Speed has nothing to do with rendering the glyphs. We hav...

6. Is it possible to add cut contours line directly with a keyboard shortcut after selecting two points with the mouse? This is very common and useful. Maybe. What shortcut makes sense? The X key in point mode has not been used and is recommended. 7. The Variations panel opens several times and the...

5. It is still recommended not to do antialiased rendering of connecting lines between points, it has no positive effect and wastes resources. FWIW the way we draw the outline is as fast as it can be. 5.1 Horizontal and vertical control lines are thicker and fainter than diagonal and curved control...

4. Cutting between two nodes is fruitless and only adds nodes at line edge ; It does work, but you need to ensure the start and end of the cut line actually include the outline. If you want to cut through an existing point, then make sure you enable Snap to Points from the View menu. Maybe it shoul...

2. The screen update time is too long for moving, deleting, cutting and drawing graphics; It is indeed slower, but the latest version is not that bad. It is too complex to further optimize it. Selecting a point and pressing Ctrl+Arrow key 5 or 6 times in a row, V13.gif The software (v15) is frozen ...

Thank you for your response, I still have some questions I hope to follow up on.

I still prefer authors to name the font names themselves rather than automatically generated by software. The software can give suggested names but should allow modifications. Because fonts need further processing after export, such as installation, deletion, recompilation, etc., customized font nam...

No, it is not related to the way the outline is drawn. We might be able to improve performance if you send us the font project file. The most recent version should work just fine. If the problem still occurs, do send us the font with specific instructions to reproduce the issue. The font project ha...

When I use the keyboard to move the control points of the lines, there is a delay of about 1 second before the updated on the screen. and in version13, such results were updated instantly. This problem is related to the size of the font project; the larger the project size, the longer the delay. Doe...

Thanks for your decision, it will help me.
