Is there a way to link accent-letters to kerning exceptions of a base glyph, even when the kerning of the base glyph is assigned to another letter?
For example; I have the kerning of the letter u linked to ‘n’ (on the left side, at least), but have a few exceptions (like pairs ‘ku’, ‘Au’,…). The problem is that I now have to copy these exceptions to all of my u-accent-letters.
Other question: Do anchors take up space in the exported font? I’m working on a variable font with quite some bracket-layers, so I have to decompose a lot of letters for it to work. Removing all those anchors (after decomposing accent-letters) is a lot of work. And is it possible to decompose all layers of a glyph in a single action? (And maybe other actions like, make create composite,…)
Ok sorry, I understand.
So, as you can see, I linked the left side of ‘u’ to ‘n’,
but I made an exception on the pair ‘Au’, and of course, I want the same kerning for all u-accents as well. But since I have 18 other accent-glyphs, it means I would have to add 18 new kerning pairs for basically the same letter. And I would have to repeat that for every single exception.
