SelectTool with Spacebar

Scripting
1

I am so sure it was asked and answered before, I just cannot find it.

How can I detect if the spacebar (filled preview) is pressed during active SelectTool. Glyphs.font.tool still returns SelectTool. I would bet there was something implemented. Or do I need to use a self written observer?

There is a temp-tool property. I have a look about the details when I’m back at the Mac.

You can try this:

Font.parent.windowController().toolTempSelection()

That’s it, exactly what I was after! Thank you so much, Georg :slight_smile:
