Setting hidden flag on variation axis

Glyphs

Is there a way to set the “Hidden” flag in a VariationAxisRecord of the fvar table for a variable font? A custom parameter perhaps? I can’t find anything like that in the variable font tutorial or in the forum.

Last I looked at this, it was not in the spec. I’ll have a look and probably add it to the axis dialog.

Thanks, Georg. That would be great. You can set it with TTX now (useful for the ital axis), and some apps look at it while others don’t.

Done.
