Flexibility
Posted: Sat Jul 11, 2009 1:44 pm
Just a few suggestions about the things that become very clear after a few weeks of testing FCP.
I hope that the following pictures are self-explainatory, but I look forward to your comment.
There's one thing not shown: exporting/Importing guidelines to a file (that would be brilliant too, so please think about it!;).
Composite glyph properties- just a little touch of flexibility...
Krening- after kerning densely a pretty geometrical font (~1600 pairs) I think there's a great space for improvements, like linking base letter with its diacritic derivatives to automatize the painstainking sessions of clicking whole night long (seriously, i believe that it would be a really powerful tool!), however in the meantime please take a look at what was my smaller dream when inputting tons of ciphers in my last font...
Glyph editor- please note FCP text menu and icons in the same line. The ribbon-like docks allow instant access and save plenty of clicking, eliminating the need of opening most of the "proprerties" or "mappings" (see viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2753) especially when parsing through the letters.
