An easier way to kern in FontCreator? (Examples from different design programs)

Post by Hafonton »

Normally it takes me tons of time to kern in FontCreator, because for each pair I need to create the pair using my mouse, searching for glyph 1, searching for glyphs 2, and only then kern the pair.

I want to show you:

How I kern in GlyphsApp: https://www.loom.com/share/630a386ff5cd ... 10bb04dd81
How I kern in FontLab7: https://www.loom.com/share/9d0c09b4a9e4 ... 60bffb4723

My suggestion for a solution: https://www.loom.com/share/b0010a5f2c5f ... 1cf50fcab1

If it will be possible to implement this kind of feature, It would save me hours of time for each font, no kidding. :oops: :shock:
In my opinion, this feature should be very prioritized (but only after variable fonts are completed).
Let me know what you think! :D
