Slant and cursify not differentiating

Hey, when I use “slant” and “cursify” in the transformations filter Glyphs doesn’t seem to differentiate between the two. They give the same result. Wonder what’s causing this — when I’ve used these filters in the past there’s been a clear distinction between the two. Might be a bug?

I’m using the newest version of Glyphs and have tested on different fonts.

I just tested in Version 2.6.4 (1277) macOS Mojave, it works as expected for me.

  1. You need to set stems in File > Font Info > Masters
  2. It only has an effect on curves, not straight lines.

Defining the stem-widths did the trick. Thank you.
