    It’s installed in /usr/local/bin but Robofont can’t open .vfb files
    Is there something else I must do to enable this?

    Hi,
    Where must vfb2ufo be installed to open vfb files directly in Robofont?

    I’ve found a work around for the issue. I generated a base ufo (UFO Central) without font info, kerning etc. and with this file I could generate the otf. So I generated a new ufo with kerning and groups selected and then I added these to the base ufo and now the file works properly. I’m figuring there was an issue with the lib or font info file.

    Hi Frederik,
    Any thoughts on how this could be corrected?

    Hi Frederik,
    I’ve tested this in Robofont 1.6 and it’s still behaving the same way.
    Can you recreate this, or is it only doing this on my machine?
    Thanks,
    Jaco

    Hi Frederik,
    Would it be possible to assign a key to disable both the “measurements show glyph metrics & measurements show font metrics” options?
    So for instance when you quickly want to only measure the width of a stem without the metrics you press cmd when dragging the measurement line and it only shows that measurement. It will avoid having go to Preferences to enable this.

    Thanks!

    The script works for the base glyph but it does not solve the shifting (mainly not moving in relation to each other) of components.

    I made more screenshots and numbered them to help to explain what is going wrong.
    1. This is the idieresis with measurements added. So currently the dotlessi’s metrics is 30 left and 30 right.
    2. When I change the dotlessi’s metrics to 40 left and 40 right the metrics of the idieresis does some weird things. It changes the left metric but instead of adding 10 on the right, it subtracts 10. I’ve tried this with other glyphs and the same happens. The dieresis on top stays the same as before the change in metrics.
    3. I then run the script and it fixes the metrics of the dotlessi but, now the dieresis has shifted as seen in the measurements.
    4. I’ve used an Adieresis as sample
    5. Same behaviour as in 2, left gets added, right gets subtracted.
    6. Base glyph’s metrics gets fixed, but dieresis does not change in relation to the base glyph.

    I’ve removed all my extensions to test wether one of them is at fault, but the issue is still there.

    Ok, so the cause of the cmd+s problem was the Properties extension by sansplomb.
    I’m not sure if it’s also the cause of the z & x keys that stop working, but I’ll just run through the extensions again if that happens.

    Hi Frederik,
    I have quite a few installed (see attachments). I’m going to remove them one by one and test to see if I can find the culprit.
    Also, I can’t get the sent2twitter to log in with my details. It keeps on returning that I’ve entered an invalid username or password.
