I’m trying to detect the first glyph in a line of text with calt
But every time I activate code with a line like
ignore sub @all@all’;
or
ignore sub [a_series b_series c_series] [A B C a b c]’;
Glyphs is crashing. Is there something wrong with my thoughts about ignore-rules?
The class all contains:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z space path1 path1used path2 path2used animation1 animation2 animation3
while the only code in the calt (for now) is: #Determine the pattern, starting with the first glyph.
lookup start{
ignore sub [a_series b_series c_series] [A B C a b c];
sub [A a] by a_series;
sub [B b] by b_series;
sub [C c] by c_series;
}start;
(the code was larger, but I have reduced it to this into Glyphs itself to look into this trouble…
When looking at the Adobe knowledge center, I can’t see any possible cause.
Sigh, you are right.
I really have to get more sleep. The code I posted is not the best one of all I tried. But that missing tick mark wasn’t the trouble. It was responsible for some of my experiments to not work, but it wasn’t responsible for the crashes I saw.
With the class @letter =
a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Astart Bstart Cstart
lookup SeriesStart{
ignore sub @letter@letter’;
sub a’ by Astart;
sub b’ by Bstart;
sub c’ by Cstart;
}SeriesStart;
It seems to work.
But when I change the code to:
lookup SeriesStart{
ignore sub @letter@letter’;
sub a by Astart;
sub b by Bstart;
sub c by Cstart;
}SeriesStart;
Glyphs can’t even compile, it runs forever.
Same story when I change the code to:
lookup SeriesStart{
ignore sub @letter@letter’;
sub [a A]’ by Astart;
sub [b B]’ by Bstart;
sub [c C]’ by Cstart;
}SeriesStart;
It works, but when removing the tick marks:
lookup SeriesStart{
ignore sub @letter@letter’;
sub [a A] by Astart;
sub [b B] by Bstart;
sub [c C] by Cstart;
}SeriesStart;
Glyphs crashes while activating the calt-feature in an example.
Hi
Is 1.4.4 online already?
I am checking for updates since a couple of days, but it says 1.4.3 is the latest version. (cutting edge versions enabled).
The update feed (http://schriftgestaltung.de/updates/appcast.xml) only contains version 1.4.3. The items for the beta are commented out. This has to be fixed on the server. Nothing to do on your side.
Changelog also dosen’t show any beta infos anymore BTW…
I could reproduce it eventually. It crashes when you pick calt from the Features pop-up in an Edit tab. I sent a crash report (“Maarten-calt-Crash” in the comment).
Of cause.
The problem is that if you mix different lookup types (in this case one line that has tick marks and the others don’t) in a lookup declaration makeOTF generates invalid lookup data instead of abborting with an error. I will fix the crash.
