Hi,
Is there script to mass delete glyphs?
to delete multi glyphs just like generate glyphs …
from a prepared list of glyphs either (comma / space / line seperated) to be applied on many files/project
good for many glyphs and repeated actions on many fonts
like generate glyphs …
thanks
You can easily create a List Filter containing all the glyphs you wish to delete. Once you’ve set up the filter, simply select it, choose all the glyphs within, and then delete them.
thanks
Why do you need to do that for so many projects?
Projects = So many .glyphs files
So many glyphs per file
So instead of hand select each one
and possibility of Mistakenly delete untargeted glyphs or leave remove-targeted glyphs.
If you have list and a feature of bulk removal, you make sure of accelerated & accurate work
Why does the project has many .glyphs files?
@GeorgSeifert
many legacy wrong mapped files that have many glyphs to be removed
each group of these fonts have the same set of removal-targeted glyphs
then I will leave the basic shapes from which other glyphs can be generated via composite / decompose contents
If you can also make a list of all glyphs that you like to keep. Select all and assign a color. Then have a second smart filter that shows all glyphs that don’t have the color label and then delete those.
