  • context menu on an individual node: Make Node First + Opt: in All Masters
  • context menu on one or more nodes: Open Corner + Opt: in All Masters
  • context menu on one or more node pairs: Reconnect Nodes + Opt: in All Masters

Selecting

• New tool: Lasso Select (Shift-V)
• Hold down Ctrl to slant a selection rectangle you are dragging
• Edit > Keep Layer Selections in Sync: keeps the selection the same across all compatible master layers

Multiple Masters and Layers

• Improved Layers palette:
  • change a layer type via context menu to Alternate, Intermediate, Color, iColor, Color Palette. Then double click the layer name for settings if applicable
  • Reorder and filter layers directly in the Layers palette
  • Drop a backup layer on a master layer to swap them (equivalent to Use as Master Layer in the context menu)
  • Double click an Intermediate or Alternate Layer to access their settings
• View > Show Compatibility (Ctrl-Opt-Cmd-N) allows you to drag start points on any of the displayed layers into a new location
• Improved algorithm for automatically correcting path directions, resetting start points and reordering shape orders

Previewing

• Edit > Text Preview: preview long texts in any instance with Apple’s CoreText
• In the Preview area of the main window, simply click and drag to reposition the preview text

Color

• Color layers: allow color fills and strokes, gradient fills, shadows and inner glows. Can be exported into an SVG table (but no support for shadows in the OT table) or any of the image formats PDF, SVG and PNG.
• Color Palette layers can be exported as CPAL/COLR. Or to an SVG table with the Color Palette for SVG and Color Layers to SVG parameters.
• iColor layers will export as sbix table in a font, or as bitmapped SVG with the SBIX to SVG custom parameter.
• Filter > Glyph as Image controls image export settings for selected glyphs, and can export PDF, SVG and PNG.
• View > Show Pixel Preview renders a pixelated preview directly in Edit View. Control pixel size in context menu.
• Glyph Info category ‘Icon’ changes glyph metrics to image dimensions

Managing glyphs

• Customize Languages glyph sets with the plus button next to the Languages header in the sidebar
• From the search field at the top of the Font View sidebar, quickly filter glyphs by name or Unicode value or with a regular expression
• Smart category ‘Small Caps’ can indicate which small-cap glyphs are missing, based on available glyphs
• Glyph > Info for Selection: Glyph Info dialog can be accessed from Edit view too
• From Edit View, navigate to the current glyph’s cell in Font View via the context menu command Show Glyph in Font View
• Glyph Info now covers writing direction and sort name, and new property ‘Case’ for differentiating between Uppercase, Lowercase, Small Caps, Minor (small figures and letter), and N/A.
• Glyphs with custom Glyph Info indicate their status with an ‘i’ icon in their Font View cell.

Font Info

• The Font Info UI is now completely modular, inline-documented and localizable wherever possible
• Localize an entry by duplicating it with its plus button and choosing a language from the pop-up menu; remove an entry by Opt-clicking the button.
• Search and filter the custom parameter
• Copying and pasting of properties and parameters between Font Info windows of different fonts. No need to focus on a section first, the entries will fall into the right place automatically.
• Batch-edit multiple masters or instances after Shift- or Cmd-selecting their names in the sidebar.
• Font Info > Masters > Metrics are pairs of height and zone size, or an italic angle. Metrics can be filtered by script or glyph category.
• Font Info > Font > Exports: add Variable Font Settings for parameters that apply to the whole variable font.

OpenType Features

• Completely house-made feature compilation, we have dropped Adobe MakeOTF for generating binaries.
• UI improvements: improved syntax coloring, changing font size with Cmd-plus/minus, autocompletion of class and glyph names.
• Customizable code snippet menu.
• Live code verification checks for errors as you type, can suggest corrections. Issues are marked in-line in the feature code and in the feature list in the sidebar.
• Spec button in each feature takes you to the official documentation.
• Adding a feature gives you a searchable list of all registered features to choose from.
• Add dynamic code with tokens:
  • number values are defined and named in Font Info > Masters, can be inserted with a prefixed dollar sign in the feature code: $numberName
  • number values can be used for calculations with curly braces: ${numberName2}
  • predicate tokens produce a list of glyph names for which the predicate applies; write an NSPredicate between square brackets: $[name like “.sc”]
• Opt-click on a glyph or class name or a predicate token to preview its glyph scope.
• Contextual mark attachment anchors: duplicate an attachment anchor with a prefixed asterisk and an optional arbitrary dot suffix to invoke the Anchor Context UI (Cmd-Shift-I) at the bottom of the Palette sidebar. Type the OT feature context with * as placeholder for the current glyph, e.g., “* @tall” for a conditional anchor position that is invoked whenever the glyph is followed by glyphs from the @tall class.
• Feature code preprocessor macros: add feature code for variable fonts only by enclosing it between “#ifdef VARIABLE” and “#endif”, or for static fonts only by using #ifndef instead of #ifdef.
• Add OTVar conditions by using the condition keyword, followed by any number of comma-separated lowvalue < tag < highvalue structures, followed by a semicolon. Code that follows will only be added if the condition is met. Exports as feature variations in OTVars. E.g., condition 600 < wght < 900, 70 < wdth < 90;

Extending

• The Glyphs Python API requires Python 3.
• Install plug-ins, scripts, Python 3 and modules via the Plugin Manager. Filter by name and installation status (installed/uninstalled).
• Add custom extension collections by supplying a custom package list URL in Glyphs > Preferences > Addons.

Exporting

• File > Export UI completely overhauled: exports for static fonts (including both desktop and webfonts), variable fonts, Metrics, UFO, and SFSymbols.
• Static font export allows direct test installation in memory without cache problems. An app may need to restart to force-rebuild its font menu if the font is test-installed the first time.
• File > Export All (Cmd-Opt-E): hold down Opt to batch-export all open fonts with the most recent export settings.
• New file format .glyphsPackage, equivalent to .glyphs, but data split in many separate files to facilitate subversioning (git, svn).

App Preferences

• Customize all colors, for both Light and Dark Mode
• Categories of sample strings
• Customize keyboard shortcuts
