Hi All! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s been a busy Spring \/ Summer. I just released v2.7.2 (more on that below) but I realized that the update before that was way back in March. Besides the few bug fixes and small improvements that were just released, I’m hard at work on a whole new Transform panel. The big additions here will be the ability to “offset” curves – essentially grow or shrink a curve – which could help as the first step to making different font weights. This has been a request for a while, but the math behind offsetting a Bezier<\/a> curve is not very simple… it’s been an interesting deep dive back into some gnarly math. The other main new functionality I’ve been working on is Skew, which will help get started designing an Italic version of a font. The math for that is actually dead simple… so a little bit of easy stuff, and a little bit of challenging stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The new Transform panel will be released as v2.8 – in the mean time, I’ll still fix small bugs, like I just released for v2.7.2 – available now at glyphrstudio.com\/app<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Bug fixes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Quality improvements<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Hear about the latest v2.7.2 release, as well as some exciting news for what’s in store for v2.8<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,3,12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-617","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-release","category-retrospective","category-version-2"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.glyphrstudio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/617","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.glyphrstudio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.glyphrstudio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.glyphrstudio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.glyphrstudio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=617"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.glyphrstudio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/617\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":618,"href":"https:\/\/www.glyphrstudio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/617\/revisions\/618"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.glyphrstudio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=617"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.glyphrstudio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=617"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.glyphrstudio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=617"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Version 2.7.2<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
