preview panel in OpenType Designer
Posted: Tue Sep 26, 2023 9:42 am
A. When you press the up and down arrows on the keyboard while typing words into Preview, all the words I wrote are lost and cannot be recovered, think that you have important cases that you are checking and typing them in Preview to arrange them later, and you accidentally clicked the up arrow, out of habit that "up" takes you to the beginning paragraph, and then you find out that all the cases you found have been deleted, it takes a lot of time.
Maybe this is really the place to ask for an option to add "Notes" in the OpenType Designer panel.
B. When you type marks in Hebrew, there are letters that have more than one mark, you can write more than 5 marks for one glyph (!) (in the picture you see a word with 6 marks).
As soon as you move from mark to mark by pressing the right and left arrows, the writing marker moves from letter to letter and not from mark to mark, what happens is that if I have two marks after Base, and I want to replace the first mark, I first have to delete the second mark and then the The first, because pressing delete will delete the entire letter with all its marks, and pressing backspace will only delete the last mark.
There are marks that are difficult to write, due to the large number of them you have to pull them out of a character map and only then write, in such a situation if I want to delete the mark in front of it, I have no way, because it is impossible to grab the mark and replace it as I wrote, that the mouse cursor takes up the entire base, delete The base with a delete button is also not possible, it will delete all the marks that this base has, and if I delete in order with Backface I will not be able to restore the last mark that I do need.
The same problem if I want to add a mark between two marks, or between the base and an existing mark that I must first delete.
The question is if it can be fixed?
Hope I was clear enough...
