Editor page navigation

Glyph Chooser

The Glyph Chooser is labeled "Editing" and shows the name of the glyph that is currently being worked on. Selecting this will launch a large Glyph Chooser flyout where you can select any character in your project.

Panel Chooser

There are many different panels that support the editing experience. These may be different depending on if you are editing a Glyph, a Component, or a Ligature.

Mainly, these panels are:

  • Attributes - Show detailed information and inputs about the currently selected Glyph, Path or Component Instance, and Path Point.
  • Layers - Shows a list of all the paths and component instances in the current glyph.
  • Context characters - Show other characters inline with the one you are currently editing.
  • History - Shows a visual representation of the undo history for this project.
  • Guides - Options for showing or hiding various guides on the edit canvas.
