Skew values in G3 disappearing

[jroshell (John)]

In Glyphs 3, I love that there’s a skew control in Font Info. However, if the component has been scaled or flipped, the values disappear when the file is closed.

Here I’m using jdotless to make the leg of Nhookleft, scaled and skewed -1°

And here’s reversed N for the Cyrillic, skewed 20°

Save the file and close.

Reopen the file. The scale values are intact, but the skew values are zero:

Georg, any chance this can be fixed in an update? Or am I stuck not scaling and skewing components?

Can you try to save as format 3? Set it it Font Info > Other

That did the trick! Thanks.
