Today I opened Glyphs app and all my filter folders disappeared?

That happened once a few days ago. I didn’t change the filter loading code in some time so I suspect something with your machine. Glyphs crash - Lost custom filters - #2 by GeorgSeifert

Strange, I wonder why, it keeps happening actually.

Can you check if the CustomFilter.plist file after you added filters/folders in the UI? It should contain all entries.

Here’s a screen recording of something strange, when I go to rename a list folder, the other folders just disappear. If I look at the plist, the entries are there, but if I then try to edit any of the remaining filter lists, the folder entries disappear from the plist too:

can you send me the plist before the edit?

I have the same issue. All my folders with the filter lists inside disappeared when I tried to modify the content. The new one I created re-appeared when I re-opened the app, but when I moved it, it disappeared again.

It was working alright as long as was just using it, but as soon as I move/rename/edit the content, boom not here anymore.

Additional note: if I look into CustomFilter.plist, the new folder with a list that I created yesterday is there, but not my old lists — they truly disappeared.

thanks for the report (and the reminder). I fixed it.
