Hi there,
There is a strange behavior of Make Component Glyph function. It sets mark with Automatic Alignment off.
Take a look:
Hi there,
There is a strange behavior of Make Component Glyph function. It sets mark with Automatic Alignment off.
Take a look:
Which app version? Does it also happen in other glyphs? And did you make sure your Font Info > Other Settings is alright?
Version 2.4.1 (956)
All glyphs are affected.
I didn’t change settings:
Oh, all marks have Automatic Alignment switched off. I don’t have to use Make Component Glyph function. :[
I believe this is a bug in 956. Make Component Glyph seems to only align the first component in diacritic compounds. But they are reported as aligned when you query them via Python.
Here is a quick fix. Select the master and glyphs you want to have auto-aligned, and run this from the Macro window:
for l in Font.selectedLayers:
for c in l.components:
c.automaticAlignment = True
Thx.
There is one more thing which seems to be related to this problem:
weird behavior of right sidebearing when all _part components are set to auto-align. When first is disabled it works ok.
Try #entry
and #exit
anchors instead.
I’ve a similar problem since moved to Glyphs 2.4.1 …
Eventually no control on Metrics update !!

I fixed that.
@GeorgSeifert I’ve reported this issue before; assuming that the problem relates to components which are not identified as Unicode or Glyphs;
After running “Update Glyph info” and “Update Metrics” commands; all glyphs that corresponds to those components do not get updated in terms of LSB & RSB … particularly if it is set to = "component name’
Besides that the "Enable Auto Alignment " issue as discussed through recently !
@mekkablue I will email you the file … as it bears another issue concerning OT features raised in a previous post;
Would appreciate your inspection.
Can you try version 957 that I uploaded earlier today?
Can you send me the file, too (to support at this domain).
Sure
