G4 –No automatically generated code (locl) NLD

Hi,

I’m not getting this code generated automatically although I believe I have all the necessary glyphs present in the font.

script latn;
language NLD;
lookup locl_latn_4 {
sub iacute j’ by jacute;
sub Iacute J’ by Jacute;
} locl_latn_4;

Is it new rules or a bug in G4?

According to Hyperglot the automatic substitute is not preferred:

Not sure what the current best practice is for supporting these cases in Dutch though. I noticed that Jacute and jacute are no longer part of Western European character set in Glyphs 4.
