Shortcut for Open Corner, Reconnect Nodes, Make Node First

1

Are already sc for those? I need those shortcuts for a faster work flow. How can I configure/view them? Ty

2

There is a menu item in Path > Other. You can assign a shortcut in System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > App Shortcuts.

Select one node for Open Corner and two nodes for Reconnect.

3

Great, so for Make node First and open corner there isnt menu item, right?

4

The same menu works for both, reconnect and open corner depending on the selection.

5

reconnect nodes, all good, but the open corner part doesnā€™t work for me

6

This is a great workaround that has improved my workflow dramatically. Still canā€™t get Open Corner to work. Iā€™ve spent some good time trying to figure out how to do it. Any tips for writing a simple script that accesses the Open Corner function?

7

Paths > Other > Open Corners was added to the menu in the latest beta. Now you can set a shortcut in System Preferences.

How can I set a shortcut for ā€˜Make node firstā€™ since it is not in Path > Other anymore ?

9

I donā€™t think that it was in the main menu.

Ok, but is there any way to add a shortcut to it?

You can write your own ā€˜make node firstā€™ script and then assign a shortcut in System Preferences. I can send you mine (wip), but my python level is pretty basic. I donā€™t want to be responsible for your glyphs crash.

Thx for the help! The script by Kyle didnā€™t work for me, unfortunately.
But I made one, feel free to try: MakeNodeFirst.zip
Cheers

I fixed Kyles script (if he accepts the pull request). Have a look at it. Yours works but is a bit wasteful.
