I can kinda see what you are doing, but the Access All Alternates (aalt) is not supposed to be used as a regular feature. It's meant to be used as an alternative access to substitutes that would not be accessible for features that are not supported by the host application. See http://www.microsoft.c...

Should theoretically be possible, but I currently don't have the time to have a look at it.

You can probably do this the easiest by defining this as a ligature. Simply create a new glyph as Bhikkhu Pesala suggested above and name it Vacute, set your OpenType export settings to "Custom script" and use this script: script latn { feature Ligatures; } feature Ligatures liga { lookup ...

That's probably your (onboard) graphics card or your soundcard that's making the noise. It's possible that one of the power circuits is not properly decoupled and one of the coils is resonating, wouldn't worry too much about it.

The script below is one example on how to achieve this, but there are actually several ways to do it. Please note that I also added the t.longbar back to the input for the "y". This will result in the combination of "ty" to be substituted by the alternates as well: calt.png scrip...

The range for Thai contains 128 places for characters, however only 87 are defined in the unicode standard. If you only add the characters that are defined by Unicode, you should end up with 87/87.

More info can be found in the unicode chart for Thai

This is a known issue of the windows memo control when the script is rather large, we are still searching for a proper solution.

We are currently working on adding GPOS support to the OpenType Features engine and we'll probably give the editor an overhaul to make editing easier. I've added these 2 items to the wishlist so they can be taken in to consideration.

We haven't had any requests before for these types of substitutions before and have not seen them in any of our test fonts either. It should be possible to simulate a "context" lookup by creating a chained context lookup, but reverse chaining context is currently not possible. In the futur...

Works fine here in FC6.5 and FC7.5 so I'm not sure what's going on..

Not at this time, it's project specific setting that has a hard-coded default.

FontCreator 7.5 is now available! Download the latest version from our download page: http://www.high-logic.com/download.html This new release adds supports for the new scalable color font technology and also contains several bug fixes and minor improvements. For more information about this new rele...

Confirmed bug, changed to CTRL+N, will be solved with the next update.

When I open Myriad pro from Adobe in FC, how can I access the GPOS features? I can't find any kerning data in the Open Type Feature Editor. You cannot. FontCreator doesn't support GPOS yet. It supports GPOS in the sense that it can create a GPOS table based on simple kerning pairs. Full control ove...

The @ is used to reference a group of glyphs in chaining context substitutions. As the name suggests, chaining context substitutions are used to substitute characters in a specific context. The script below shows a basic ordinals feature which will substitute the alphanumeric characters with supersc...
