Preview Area - Show all instances ⇒ Show only active instances

In Glyphs 3, the preview area “Show all instances” does exactly what it says it does… Glyphs 2 would only show the active instances. For me, and my fonts with tons of instances, only showing active instances was better. Is there any way to re-enable this feature of G2 in 3?

Only instances with an open eye are shown. You can use the following macro to hide inactive instances:

Oh thanks Florian! This is perfect!

When I try to click an eye closed on the Instances pop up menu, all the options go away except for “-” and “Show All Instances” (that is, the list of instances disappears from the menu). Is this a known bug?

That popup is a bit buggy in macOS Sonoma. What version of Glyphs do you have?

3.2 (3231) on Sonoma 14.1.2
