I want to assign the shortcut cmd+e to a custom plugin but it keeps opening the native export. When I open Settings window and press cmd+e, it does open the plugin, but not when the Settings window is closed
Why do you want to reassign this? What does your plugin do?
If it’s something to run your own export workflow, have you considered a glyphsFileFormat plugin?
Shortcuts often go in effect only after an application restart. System limitations, YMMV.
Restart didn’t help. This seems to be a minor bug in the app.
We built a specific export font package builder that follows our studio standards
Exactly what Sebastian said. Package it as a fileFormat plugin. Then it shows up in the default export dialog along the other export options.
Well but that doesn’t solve the issue of cmd+e being locked to the export window, right?
Your custom export code would be accessible from the export window, that way the shortcut is the same and you have full control over font export.
