Ctrl+X would be nice if it does not conflict with other uses of Cutting the selected contour to the clipboard, etc.

Re: [FIXED] From some characters not make composite characters

Use Complete Composites for this. A definition exists in CompositeData.xml. <Composite><!-- L Middle Dot --> <GlyphMapping>319</GlyphMapping> <Member id="1"> <GlyphMapping>76</GlyphMapping> <UseMetrics>TRUE</UseMetrics> </Member> <Member id="2"> <GlyphMapping>183</GlyphMapping> <...

Re: [FIXED] From some characters not make composite characters

If you are moving anchors, use anchor-based glyph composition.

Re: Sort out only system fonts?

Yeah, I've heard that said before. But I don't think ALL those fonts are critical to Windows; things like Comic Sans are just plain stupid! And I'll NEVER need all those Chinese and other foreign fonts! MainType's list of System fonts does not include Comic Sans or those Chinese and other foreign f...

Re: [FIXED] From some characters not make composite characters

As I said earlier, change the position of the anchor on the k, not on the accent, and why are you using doubleacute.comb for k cedilla?

Re: [FIXED] From some characters not make composite characters

If k cedilla (comma) is composed with the Complete Composites method, the following code will be used: <Composite><!-- k cedilla (comma) --> <GlyphMapping>311</GlyphMapping> <Member id="1"> <GlyphMapping>107</GlyphMapping> <UseMetrics>TRUE</UseMetrics> </Member> <Member id="2"> <...

Re: [FIXED] From some characters not make composite characters

You need to edit the anchor position on the h, not on the caron accent.

Re: [FIXED] From some characters not make composite characters

I am using Vivaldi, which is also Chrome-based.

Edit: The download page now shows the 64-bit version as the default.

Re: [FIXED] From some characters not make composite characters

I noticed that L middledot only composes with CompleteComposites, not with Auto or Anchor-based composition. Another small point, the button on the download page default to downloading the 32-bit version, but you recommend installing the 64-bit version of the user's OS supports it. Wouldn't it make ...

Re: [FIXED] From some characters not make composite characters

You can apply Complete Composites (Auto) to selected glyphs if you wish to avoid overriding existing composites with new versions. Perfection is impossible because every font design is unique. The feature may be nearly perfect on standard Serif or Sans Serif fonts, but script fonts will often need a...

Re: Some composite characters not the same

What is your FontCreator version?

Which method are you using to create Composites? Auto, Anchor-based, Composite Data?

System Fonts are critical to Windows, and should not be removed.

Re: Characters with holes will be filled when I import to Fontcreator

Try reversing the contour direction on the inner contour, or use the Validation tool.
