Returning blank for accents in GSGlyphsInfo?

Scripting
1 
Font = Glyphs.font
FontMaster = Font.selectedFontMaster
selectedLayers = Font.selectedLayers
for thisLayer in selectedLayers:
	thisGlyph = thisLayer.parent
	thisGlyphInfo = GSGlyphsInfo.glyphInfoForName_( thisGlyph.name )
print thisGlyphInfo.accents

Only returns:

<native-selector accents of <GlyphInfo: <0x6000006f9080> N:c, U:0063, Sc:latin, Cat:Letter, SubCat:Lowercase production: (null), sort: (null) Components:(null)>>

Even print thisGlyphInfo still gives me only:

<GlyphInfo: <0x608003ee9900> N:c, U:0063, Sc:latin, Cat:Letter, SubCat:Lowercase production: (null), sort: (null) Components:(null)>

Nothing about the accents? I’m trying to create a script that will process selected glyphs (which will be calt glyphs) and check which accented characters exist in the font for that base glyph then create accented calt glyphs.

i.e. I have:

n, ntilde, nacute, n.alt, t, tcaron, t.tail,

and will select

n.alt, t.tail,

and then create ntilde.alt, nacute.alt, tcaron.tail.

That has to be:

print thisGlyphInfo.accents()

If you get this error message:

That means you are printing the method and not what the method is supposed to return. For often used methods, I added some wrapper code to make it more python friendly. For all not wrapped methods, you need to use the syntax that is provided by the pyObjC bridge.

Thanks Georg, I’m still new to the structure of Python!
