“Decompose glyphs” CP before interpolation?

1

Hey,

I’m using this custom parameters in a multi-master project because most masters use a component bar for Eth, but for the heaviest masters, the bar is decomposed.

I thought including “Eth” in the Decompose Glyphs CP would enable export, but it didn’t. I encountered an interpolation error. However, exporting worked when I ran “Decompose Components for All Masters.”

Perhaps I misunderstand how this CP works, or something might be broken. I’ve tried both the latest cutting-edge version (3234) and the last stable version.

Here’s a .glyphs file demo for your review.

The order of the decomposition and compatibility check is important. I’ll have a look.

Any news about this @GeorgSeifert ? :disappointed_relieved:

I did’t get to this, yet. Thanks for the reminder.

I think it’s still not fixed @GeorgSeifert …
Even worse, now this no longer triggers an error at export :confused:

EDIT : Error messages reappear after restarting Glyphs.

The “Decompose Glyphs” parameter is applied after the interpolation. So it is tool late. You can add a PreInterpolationFilter with Decompose;include:I. (“PreInterpolationFilter” will not show in the list, but will still work).
