Predefined sorting parameter missing

Glyphs
1

Hi, I have imported a UFO file from FL6 and my glyphs have come in with predefined sorting even though i had it unchecked in my preferences. I have looked in the font info panels for the custom ‘glyph order’ parameter to delete it but it is not there. My glyphs are appearing in a pre-defined order and the wording ‘predefined sorting’ is appearing above my glyohs when i select the ‘latin’ option.

I am using Glyphs 2.6. Can anyone suggest what i should do?

Many thanks
Matt

Try Cmd-A, then under Glyph on the menu, select Update Glyph Info. That will likely fix it.

Thanks George! I did try that earlier but didn’t realise i ahd to select all the glyphs at once before doing so. That fixed it.

Thanks

You don’t need to select all. There has to be at least one glyph selected.

Grreat - thanks Georg. All sorted now. Many thanks for your help!

This seems to be strange. Glyphs doesn’t sort the glyphs on import to give you a chance to set an “glyphOrder” parameter.
