Modifier letters cannot take combining marks?

Glyphs
1

In the combination gᵘ̯ʰ, I cannot get the mark feature to position the inverted breve below correctly, even if all parts have corresponding anchors. Is there any technical limitation I’m not aware of?

2

What is the caregory/subcategory of the superscript letters? And can you check where they show up in the GDEF table (open the features.fea in the temp folder).

3

Category: Letter. Subcategory: Modifier. Yes, umod is in the GDEF table.

(Unrelated problem: My exported files don’t use the production names. “umod” should be “uni1D58”. I’m using Version 2.3.1 (899))

4

But in what category. In Base or mark.

5

Base.

6

Could you send me the .glyphs file?

7

File is sent.

Any news on this?

The version from last night should fix it.
