STAT table does not scale

Glyphs
1

When exporting a variable font from Glyphs app with masters that have the custom parameter “Axis Location” it is understood the the fonts axis and instances are scaled to these new minimum and maximum values. This occurs properly on the fvar table but not on the STAT table, the STAT table uses the unscaled values

As an example: if Regular has a weight of 95 in Glyphs, with an axis location of 400, the fvar table will properly display 400.0, but the STAT table shows 95)

I’ve just noticed this is still true on build 1245. While the exported variable fonts work fine in Adobe CC and MacOS, they do not on Windows 10.

My weight axis range from 27 to 216. I’m using the Axis Location parameter to resize them to 1–1000. In this new setup, anything larger than 216 is not accessible on Windows.

I’ll have a look.
