Weight Mapping Visualisation Tool

[Ginjam (Jamie Clarke Type)]

Hi all
I wondered if anyone had created, or thought about creating a tool for Glyphs to visualise the subtle weight shifts in a glyph?
Nina Stössinger wrote a super useful looking Python tool to do this, however She told me that it’s still proprietary at this stage (plus, I believe Nina is a Robofont user so unlikely to make something for glyphs.)

Does anyone else think this would be useful, or is it just taking the joy out of training your eye?

There is a thread about this already. Simon Cozens wrote the Callipers plugin, it does something very similar.

Thanks @mekkablue I’ll have a look

If she will publish it, it is usually quite easy to port it to Glyphs.
