Correcting paths for Diacritics

rgalbreath · June 19, 2019, 3:02am

I’m new to glyphs and trying to make diacritics. On my slash ones where the paths overlap it is showing clear. How do I correct the paths so they are joined correctly?

I’ve attached a screenshot to show what I mean.

Thanks!

This is a path direction problem. Go into the Font View (Cmd-Opt-1), select all (Cmd-A), and Paths > Correct Path Direction (Cmd-Shift-R).

Thanks, but I tried that already and it didn’t help.

If the automatic path direction doesn’t help, you need to do it manually. This should help: https://glyphsapp.com/tutorials/drawing-good-paths

Thank you! It was working fine this AM so must have been a temporary glitch.
