Hi, I’m working in a font for CNC, laser and plotter, so all glyphs are open paths.
But when building glyphs with components I get false “empty base glyph” warnings just only when a component is made of other component.
Like /atilde/ build from /a+tildecomb/ but /tildecomb/ is made of /tilde/.
In case I build /atilde/ with /a+tilde/ I get no warnings.
Warning dissapears adding a closed path to /tilde/ or /tildecomb/
In the image from left to rigth: a+tilde, tilde, tildecomb, a+tildecomb
Can you send me that font?
Hi Georg, I checked with another WIP font and same happens, so I decide to restart the computer to replicate the bug from scratch, which always happens like this:
- Create a new project
- Draw a glyph with an open stroke, for example A
- Draw a glyph with an open stroke, for example acute
- Create the acutecomb glyph by adding acute as a component
- Generate the Aacute glyph from the side menu
There appears the warning
- Edit the acute or acutecomb glyph to add an open stroke.
The warning disappears.
- Delete the stroke done in step 6 and close the acute path.
The warning disappears.
Could you please try to reproduce those steps? Will take you a minute.
Hi, here is a font with the isolated problem.
