After installing the latest version of RMX Tools for Glyphs 3 I no longer have a shortcut for RMX Tuner. If anyone else having this problem?
There might be a conflict with another plugins. You should be able to add the shortcut back in Preferences > Shortcuts.
Do I need to restart to activate the custom shortcut?
In case someone stumbles across this topic as they have the same problem:
What seems to work reliably is to explicitly set a different shortcut for “Tidy up Paths” (this is the menu command that has Cmd+Shift+T by default in Glyphs 3, and it seems to be causing the problems).
Then adding Cmd+Shift+T for the RMX Tuner should work as you expect.
My RMX Tunner is missing at the Glyphs 3, I try to restart the glyphs, but the Rmx tuner still missing. What should I do? Thanks
Only the Tuner is missing or all RMX tools?
Only the tunerr
Trying to shed some light on this issue, which I was still struggling with recently:
- The default shortcut for “Tidy up Paths” is Cmd+Shift+T.
- The RMX Tuner also specifies Cmd+Shift+T as shortcut.
On my Macbook, the plug-in wins:
- Cmd+Shift+T opens the Tuner
- The Path menu shows “Tidy up Paths for all Masters”, no matter whether I hold option or not. This means it is entirely impossible to call “Tidy up Paths”, whether by shortcut or by menu.
On my iMac, “Tidy up Paths” wins:
- Cmd+Shift+T runs “Tidy up Paths”.
- The Path menu shows “Tidy up Paths” with Cmd+Shift+T as shortcut.
- However, this shortcut is not shown in the app settings, unlike the other shortcuts. It simply shows a gray “Record shortcut”.
- After using Cmd+Shift+T, the Edit menu says “Undo Insert Node”. Why is this? I’d expect it to say “Undo Tidy up Paths”. What’s more, Glyphs didn’t insert any nodes, it removed some.
- As noted above, recording a custom shortcut for “Tidy up Paths” solves the issue. In my case, it was not even necessary to set a custom shortcut for the RMX Tuner. After a Glyphs restart, Cmd+Shift+T opens the Tuner as desired.
- As a side note, calling “Tidy up Paths” now results in a plain “Undo” in the Edit menu.
Maybe there is potential for Glyphs to better handle conflicts between default shortcut and plug-in. Looking into the other oddities mentioned above may help.
