This will be solved in the next update…. hurray!
you can access other layers easily with:
glyph = CurrentGlyph() backgroundLayerGlyph = glyph.getLayer("background")This returns the glyph object of a specific layer. If the layer doesn’t exist a new layer with the provided name will be created.
see http://doc.robofont.com/api/robofab-extras/
UFO3 will not be embedded in the next release, but likely be in the next-next release (however I don’t want to make any promises)
You can only draw when there is a drawing context. Observe the events “draw” or “drawBackground” to draw additional info of a glyph in the glyph view.
Good luck
can you email me the UFO file? or a sample UFO that produce this output error.
thanks
a typo :)
thanks for reporting
will be fixed in the next updateHe Roberto
Can you send the UFO? or make an example with the same traceback.
Do you use a local version of FDK or the embedded one? “tx” is part of FDK
thanks
a small tip:
for modifying font data in a batch (multiple fonts at once) it is advised to use
font = OpenFont(path, showUI=False)so there is no UI build for the font, extremely fast and less memory usagegood luck!
This is a know issue with pyObjc, the cocoa wrapper for building apps on a mac.
Your font family name has an soft enter char at the end.
good luck
There is the kerning attribute of a font
see http://www.robofab.org/objects/kerning.htmlf = CurrentFont() print f.kerning[('A', 'V')]If there is group kerning, maybe you should flatten the kerning dict in a temporary dict.
If the kerning is only available in the features, best is to compile the font it and read it back into RoboFont.good luck!
the
ExtensionBundleus written similarly asNSImage.imageNamed_from AppKit import * print NSImage.imageNamed_("ExtensionIcon")when you get a slider callback just request for the
CurrentFont()instead of keeping a reference of a fontthere is no standard way to set the point selection
you can use fontTools
pointInRectfrom fontTools.misc.arrayTools import pointInRect for contour in CurrentGlyph(): for point in contour.points: print pointInRect((point.x, point.y), (minx, miny, maxx, maxy))take a look at the PolygonSelectionTool https://github.com/typemytype/RoboFontExamples/blob/master/tools/polygonSelectionTool.py
good luck!
will make it available through the
ExtensionBundleso you could install extensions with “showMessages“ disabled. Installing a bundle will return a succes bool and an info message.Why do you need to update the current font while clicking a window?
Maybe don’t use a floating window, Floating window only become key windows if a proper input is selected, like EditText ….
