Is it possible to rotate from a point, and not just kind of on a point as I currently do by zooming in, i.e. like in Illustrator, “Snap to Point” allows you to rotate from the point.
I’ve followed the installation instructions but the vanilla dependant scripts don’t work?
(i know vanilla is on my system since I have used other programs that require vanilla)
thanks!
I posted renewed installation instructions two days ago. Try those.
If the problem persists, can you paste the error message you get?
I just tried those instructions, there’s no error message, it’s just that nothing happens.
Open Window > Macro, please. What is reported there when you run the script?
Ah, it can’t find Vanilla:
Start
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “Rotate around anchor.py”, line 6, in
ImportError: No module named vanilla
Run these commands in Terminal:
cd /Library/Python/
sudo rsync -aE 2.7/site-packages/* 2.6/site-packages/
Then, try again.
still can’t find Vanilla, I wonder if this has to do with how I previously installed Vanilla, python etc?
Glyphs needs Vanilla to be installed for Python 2.6. Perhaps you want to go through the steps described in the readme to re-install it.
I managed to find where Python was installing on my system which was here:
“/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages”
instead of
“/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages”
I copied Vanilla into the latter and it worked!
Maybe of use to other users with difficulties with Vanilla. Thanks for your help.
