Problems with Mekkablue’s “Straight Stem Cruncher”

Scripting
1

Hi!

I’m working on a file that has interpolated and scaled masters which caused irregular stem widths. To find these irregular stems, I wanted to use the Straight Stem Cruncher, but I can’t get it to work …

I intentionally manipulated the H for testing with a deviating vertical stem width, but the script does not seem to be able to detect it.

When I run the script on horizontal stems too, it wrongly marks the crossbar with the correct stem width of 49.0 to be 51.0 …

Thank you!

Hi! Sorry to bother you again about this, but have you been able to figure out whats going wrong with the script?
I would be so happy if I could use the script. It would make my work much easier.

Yes, I sent it on the 4th. :sweat_smile: But it’s probably not important any more …

Thank you for merging!
