I’m working on the tutorial for switching glyph shapes:
All works fine in Glyphs, when i’m switching the instance preview (in the left corner of window bottom) also the glyphs switching the shapes like it should. After exporting the font (Folder: System > Library > Application Support > Adobe > Fonts) and testing in Adobe Illustrator there is no shape switching.?!
It’s necessarily a cache problem with Illustrator.
Are you sure you don’t have accidentally install it in another way ?
If you remove all export of this font from your Adobe folder, Illustrator continues to display it ?
Yes. I spent an entire day trying to make switching shapes work in AI. Then I found on the forum that it is a known problem. @mekkablue Might be a good idea to put a notification in the tutorial about the bug, until they resolve it.
Just to clarify: I was working on a Variable Font.
