How to add corner components on GSHandle? The following script shows that the added corner component is not in this GSHandle, it at the origin.

tool = Font.parent.windowController().toolEventDelegate()
for handle in tool.currentTool().extraHandles():
    corner = GSHint()
    corner.name='_corner.abc'
    corner.type = CORNER
    corner.originNode = handle
    Layer.hints.append(corner)

Even if executed
Layer.setExtraHandles_(tool.currentTool().extraHandles())
it not successful either.

Second this. I need to know how to do it.
GSlayer.intersecttions() doesn’t give me handles, and even if I select it in select tool to get the info, the resulting corner component returns None for originNode.

corner = GSHint()
node = Layer.shapes[0].nodes[0]
corner.name = '_corner.abc'
corner.type = CORNER
corner.stem = 1004 # or 1005 for the other directiton
corner.originNode = node
Layer.hints.append(corner)

the corner is attached to the regular node but by setting the stem to 1004 or 1005 it uses the offsetted point.
