Suggestions? how to erase current glyph's kerning?

Scripting
#1

Like in the topic. How can I do it from macro-script level?

#2 
font = Glyphs.font
currTab = font.currentTab

leftLetter = currTab.text[currTab.textCursor-1]
rightLetter = currTab.text[currTab.textCursor]
leftLetter = Glyphs.niceGlyphName(leftLetter)
rightLetter = Glyphs.niceGlyphName(rightLetter)

for glyph in font.glyphs:
	if glyph.name == leftLetter:
		leftLetter = glyph

	if glyph.name == rightLetter:
		rightLetter = glyph
		
print rightLetter
font.removeKerningForPair(font.selectedFontMaster.id,leftLetter.name,rightLetter.name)

this doesn’t work :frowning:

#3

I don’t understand why you iterate through all glyphs. This works:

font = Glyphs.font
currTab = font.currentTab

leftChar = currTab.text[currTab.textCursor-1]
rightChar = currTab.text[currTab.textCursor]
leftGlyphName = Glyphs.niceGlyphName(leftChar)
rightGlyphName = Glyphs.niceGlyphName(rightChar)

font.removeKerningForPair(font.selectedFontMaster.id,leftGlyphName,rightGlyphName)
#4

I tried to do it like you showed and it didn’t work (that’s why I tried to iterate through all glyphs: I thought that maybe there is solution). Maybe there is problem with my GlyphsApp. I will reinstall glyphsapp

EDIT:
I just figured out that removeKerningForPair doesn’t work with one particular .glyph file. Still don’t know why

#5

Can you send me the .glyphs file and the script you used?

#6

Sure

#7

That script only removes kerning between glyphs, not between classes. Instead of the glyph name, you need to remove the kerning with the .leftKerningGroup and rightKerningGroup:

font = Glyphs.font
currTab = font.currentTab
cursor = currTab.graphicView().cachedSelectionRange().location # there will be a wrapper for this in the next version

leftLayer = currTab.layers[cursor - 1] 
rightLayer = currTab.layers[cursor ] 
leftGlyphName = leftLayer.parent.name
rightGlyphName = rightLayer.parent.name

leftGroup = leftLayer.parent.rightKerningGroupId()
rightGroup = rightLayer.parent.leftKerningGroupId()

font.removeKerningForPair(font.selectedFontMaster.id, leftGlyphName, rightGlyphName)

font.removeKerningForPair(font.selectedFontMaster.id, leftGroup , rightGroup)

font.removeKerningForPair(font.selectedFontMaster.id, leftGroup, rightGlyphName)

font.removeKerningForPair(font.selectedFontMaster.id, leftGlyphName, rightGroup)
