Bug: Layers for glyphs disappeared upon upgrading from Glyphs 1.3.14 to 1.3.15

Layers for glyphs disappeared upon upgrading from Glyphs 1.3.14 to 1.3.15.

In earlier versions of Glyphs, I had multiple layers (variants) for a few glyphs in a new typeface. When I upgraded from 1.3.14 to 1.3.15, the layers disappeared.

It may be worse. A number of glyphs no longer seem to exist. Will try re-installing 1.3.14 and seeing if a version exists in Versions or from a backup.

The version 1.3.15 is still beta (I added a comment in the release note) and is only shown if you have selected “show cutting edge versions”. Sorry for the confusion.

I have fixed several issues, but could you send me your (original) files that I can verify that it does not happen any more.

[ I was able to get to an older version of the file back with 1.3.14. ]

I did notice it was a cutting edge version, but took a chance.

Since this particular font includes images of a person’s private text (from handwriting), I’ll see if I can create a smaller test to replicate the issue. I may not be able to get to that until tomorrow (California time), though, given commitments tonight.

I will post a new beta, soon. So you can try yourself. Thanks

It looks like the new beta 1.3.15 (409) may have fixed the issue. The file was preserved this time. fyi.
