Thank you. I see now how this works and that things proceed after an OTLFD warning. I've posted an issue on Github/Noto about these lookups.
So I did panic a bit ... sorry 'bout that - should have been able to figure this out ...

Re: Duplicate Reference to Lookup
Well ... lots of behavior seems to have changed in 13.0.0.2645. I'm not sure what is going on, but when I open the Code Editor window, I now get hundreds of line of NULL pos directives in some lookups. For example: pos dieresis mark NULL; These get flagged as: Warning: No anchor defined for glyph &q...

Re: AutoMetrics & AutoKern Greek & Extended Greek characters ONLY?
I've been working with Bhikkhu Pesala's method of copying glyphs to the Latin script code points in order to access the FC AutoMetrics / Optical Metrics functionality for a while now. Some things I've encountered that may be helpful: It really helps to pre-sort all glyphs by Code Point order (Tools ...

Rendering of Composite Glyphs
I'm getting corrupt output for glyphs that have two levels of composites. My "1/6" fraction is a composite, where the "6" is a glyph which itself is a single member composite. Both level of compositing perform a reposition on the glyph, and the second reposition is lost. This onl...

Re: Insert Glyph with Name AND Code Point
Thank you Bhikkhu ... One challenge is that the glyph names are things like a.smcp (for example) ... not glyph names that are standard to a particular code point. Can I cut-paste glyph names from a text list somehow? .. oh ... wait ... I get it. Add characters by code point, ... then add glyphs by g...

Insert Glyph with Name AND Code Point
Might anyone know a handy way to insert a large block of glyphs, giving both their glyph names and code points? Both Insert Glyphs and Insert Characters perform half of that ... The setting is a large set of alternate glyphs that will be accessible both from an OpenType feature and (for Microsoft Wo...

How are the visual guides in the Glyph Edit window for things like CapHeight.smcp and Baseline.smcp controlled / set / turned on and off?

Color / Non-Color mode in Font Overview Window
Is there a way to turn On / Off color mode in the Font Overview Window. The View => Color Mode menu item as well as the handy [Color Mode] toolbar button both work nicely for the Glyph Edit window, but seemed to be disabled for the Font Overview window. It would be really handy to be able to turn on...

MaxContext
Is the MaxContext field (O2/2, but really pertains to GPOS and GSUB) auto-calculated by FC? I vaguely recall it used to be a user input.
I cannot seem to locate it anywhere. Is it shown anyplace?
