Erode Filter as Custom Parameter

Scripting
1

I’d like to use the Erode filter as a custom parameter but when I copy the filter parameter and paste it into the custom parameters I get this:

{
customParameters = (
{
name = Filter;
value = “Erode; teeth:None;”;
}
);
}

No numerical values are added and If I did add them myself, I wouldn’t know what to enter since the “Probability of erosion” and “Degree of erosion” properties are just sliders.

I also came across this issue. I would like to apply different values for different instances, but it seems like the last copied value becomes persistent accross all instances. Did you find a solution? @Jscruggs

I fixed the plugin. The proper format for the filter string os as follows:

Erode; segments:200.0; spikiness:5; segProbability:0.6

The update just went live. So if you restart Glyphs (maybe twice) or remove and reinstall the plugin. Then the Copy filter parameter should give you the current settings from the dialog.
