I have some problems with the auto-metric feature.
The left glyph is “_circle” (path), which get It’s Sidebearings from the “O”.
And the right one (component from _circle and component from seven.sup - not aligned) is getting the sidebearings from this one (_circle)
But Glyphs moves the component always silently to the left. And shows no error in the info below the glyph ( as you see), only in edit view.
What is the order of the components (it seems to be “seven.denominator” and “_circle”)?
Are there any anchors in the _circle or seven.denominator glyphs?
And can you show a screenshot when in edit mode?
(The glyph name for the seven should probably be “seven.dnom”).
Very strange. The glyphs are now marked as “out of sync”. And I can’t reproduce the behaviour from yesterday. Neither with a backup. So everything is as it should be.
This happens to me all the time in G2 and G3. It says the metrics are synched when they clearly aren’t. I believe it usually happens when I copy a component from one weight and paste it into another. A trick i’ve found is to nudge it one click to the left or right when I see them, but that doesn’t account for ones that may be hiding.
