Glyphs Missing When Reopening

Open pmerrity opened this issue 9 years ago • 5 comments

I was creating a font and had 3 letters or so down. I didn't have issues and the program never crashed on me. But today I opened the program and selected the file from recents, and all of the glyphs were missing. However, it may be more accurate to say it reverted to an earlier version and kept a letter from when I was testing it out, but I can't be sure because it was so long ago. I'm mostly a front-end developer, but know my way around terminal/code if you can guide me on troubleshooting it. Thanks in advance!

Thank you for the report. Which OS are you using?

I'm on OS X Yosemite, 10.10.5

I can't reproduce this on 10.11.2. Saving and loading seems to work in BirdFont 2.15.3. I have changed a few things connected to sandbox support in the latest version but I am not sure why this error happened. Which version of BirdFont are you using and can the problem be reproduced with the latest version?

Sorry for the late reply.

I'm using version 2.14.0 (1). I got a little discouraged because making fonts takes forever...so I haven't taken the time to reproduce it. But I will start working on it again and give you more details on what steps I take prior to it happening again, if it does.

It would be great if you could reproduce it with 2.15, many things have changed in the latest release.
