Segment Components and curves

[lastchop]

Hello,

I am working on a variable font with the help of segment components and the problem I am having is how to keep the original shape of rounded glyphs.

Maybe there is a trick I dont know about on how to deal with segment components so it does not destroy the curves of an “O” for example.

Here the letter “O” which I modified. The problem is the first one which should stay the same but is jagged because of the segment component.

Here the four masters of the segment component:

Thanks for your help in advance!

Can you try to convert all lines to curves? That might need some work in the other masters but should get you a smother appearance in the default master.

Thanks, it helped!
Although it is quite a long and accurate process.
