Italic Extremes Plugin

Scripting

Hi!
I’m having trouble getting the Italic Extremes plugin to work on the latest version of Glyphs.
I am on 3.2 (3217) — it was working on earlier versions of 3.2.

Here is the error message on the macro panel:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "GlyphsApp/GlyphsApp/plugins.py", line 613, in process_
  File "plugin.py", line 238, in filter
    self.add_extremes(layer)
  File "plugin.py", line 174, in add_extremes
    allTs = GSExtremTimesOfBezier(p1, p2, p3, p4, None, None, None, None)
NameError: name 'GSExtremTimesOfBezier' is not defined

Was GSExtremTimesOfBezier renamed, or is there a workaround you can point me to?
Many thanks!

Yes, please let us know what changed in version 3.2 (3217). Thanks!

I figure the typo in GSExtremPointsOfBezier was remedied:

It it now called GSExtremePointsOfBezier, I assume.

Thank you so much for the tip! I replaced it with GSExtremeTimesOfBezier with the e and that did the trick.

H!
Is anyone else having issues with this plugin? I can’t get it to appear in the filter list despite uninstalling/reinstalling and restarting Glyphs.

Do you get any messages in the macro window?

You should use the one from Georg’s fork, not the one from the plugin manager.

No error, just nothing happens when I install from plugin manager.
Will try the one from your fork

@SCarewe Thanks but I can’t see a fork on Github. Where would I get this?

Here it is: GitHub - schriftgestalt/ItalicExtremes: Glyphs app plugin to add points on a specified angle.
