Hi Erwin, I've looked into the new feature. Honestly, it isn't exactly what I wanted/thought would be helpful. "Apply Everywhere" should be accompanied by "Apply Selected". When "stacking" two glyphs over each other I can assign, e.g. 20% transparency to the "backg...

Thank you! I'm on a business trip right now and can test it only on Monday.

Aah, o.k. I've tried the wizard and it worked. BTW it would be helpful if you could add context help popups there.

Mmhh, I must be doing something wrong because it seems not to work as expected: screenshot_20210707_133220.png I push the button: screenshot_20210707_133238.png Then I'm trying to correct the contour: screenshot_20210707_133255.png Now the Light and Black has problems: screenshot_20210707_133337.png...

Hi Erwin,

I'm sorry but I can't find where to check this button. Where is it?

Thank you very much Erwin, I will test it tomorrow before England vs Denmark

Looking good, thanks for the answer.

Thank you very much. I will check this. I'd tested this with an exported version of a FontLab file which actually had TT outlines instead of Postscript CFF outlines.

That's great, thank you.

BTW is there a trick so that while displaying all instances that they fit all into the window? Maybe a "Fit in window" option in the zoom dropdown menu?

Ulrich

Thank you both! But I would like to see both the coordinates of the node together with the coordinates of its handles. Say, I have a node where both handles should have the same y value and both should have the same distance with respect to the node, e.g. ±30. If I could select a node and in the pos...

Hi,

I'm doing probably something wrong: How can I see the "correct" order Light>Regular>Black?

Ulrich

It would be great if FC could automatically correct all instances in one go (something like a "synchronize" checkbox). While I'm correcting in one instance, say the regular version, e.g. a curve direction or, when deleting a node not needed. Of course, this is useful only if all instances ...

Hi, I've already written this in the beta forum. But because it is important for me I will repeat it here as a feature request ;-) In the preview panel (and maybe in the font overview and/or the OpenType Designer too) it would be nice if I could colorize or change the transparency of some glyphs. Th...

Hi, I'm a new user to FC14 (I most of the time have used FontLab and Glyphs). I have two questions that are probably easy to answer: How do I switch, e.g., in the glyphs window after zooming in to an editing tool to select nodes and handles? Is there a way to show the connection between nodes and ha...

I would like to see a more detailed information page in the output (File>Print Preview...>"Print What" Font information). It should contain information from the Information Panel like "General", "Metrics", and especially "OpenType Features" but also OS the fil...
