Diacritic mark cloud not displaying

Loving Glyphs 4 so much so far! Just having an issue with the marks cloud not showing up. I’ve got all my diacritics designed and my anchors are set. I’ve also clicked the “Display Mark Cloud” box in the Appearance menu.

Works just fine in Glyphs 3 with the same file so I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. Cheers and thanks!

Does relaunching Glyphs 4 solve the issue? In that case, I think I know what this could be…

Thanks for asking, Florian. No that does not make any difference.

And when you switch to dark mode?

Thanks for checking, Georg. No effect. I tried switching to Dark, quit Glyphs 4, and then restarted and still no marks cloud. While doing this I also noticed that Glyphs 4 always restarts in light mode. Cheers!

Same behavior here.

Glyphs 4.0 (4000), macOS 26.5.2 (25F84). Display Mark Cloud is checked in Appearance settings, anchors and diacritics are all set up correctly, and the same file shows the mark cloud fine in Glyphs 3. No cloud appears when selecting an anchor in Glyphs 4.

Also tried toggling light/dark mode, no change.

Problem appears to be solved now, Loris. I’ve updated to 4.0.1 (4004) and I now see the mark cloud.
