  In case anyone's following this thread: over on RoboFont's Discord, thanks to Wim asking we determined that the issue had mainly to do with a bug in a pre-release version of DB I was using; using v3.130 cleared things up.

  Sure enough, that seems to have been the problem. A new font file with internal settings for opsz that increase rather than decrease with point size seems to now respond in Drawbot as expected.

  Wow thanks a lot for such a fast fix! That is a lifesaver function for glyph proofing

  Hi @gferreira, this workaround is really helpful in making variable font animations not so jittery (run into that a lot). However, when using BezierPath, one loses selecting fill within some words of the FormattedString. Is it possible not flatten it all to one color with BezierPath?

  not really a bug: when applying a blur the images gets bigger, check with im.size() before and after the blur is applied. im.offset() is providing you the correct x, y difference.

  @frederik https://www.drawbot.com/_/downloads/en/stable/pdf/, and my bad: I was using an old version of the documentation (3.121). I see the 3.126 version has a working URL. (The line break is breaking the link in the pdf, though.)

  But that means that default linespacing = fontSize + 1? not really… it depends on the vertical metrics in the font. here’s a test with other fonts: from random import choice fontName = choice(installedFonts()) txt = FormattedString() txt.append('a', fontSize=1000, font=fontName) print(fontName) print(textSize(txt)[1]) line height is tricky see 1 2 3 4

  mm strange, can you send an example script that fails with this traceback A wild guess is that the drawBot package is not installed. Did you do this last step (next to installing all the dependencies) cd path/To/drawBot pytho3.7 setup.py install

  @frederik I am on Mojave (10.14.5). This is the crash report that comes up after I force quit Drawbot: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4b6gkksm1ti5rnv/Drawbot crash report.txt?dl=0 Not sure if there is another report somewhere else… One other thing I have noticed just now is that if I run the script above and then run a different script, Drawbot will freeze as well. The second script being one that I use daily with zero issues.

  @bic to make sure which version of Python you are running: import sys print(sys.version) in SublimeText3 you can set the Python version in Tools > Build System. handling of unicode changed radically from py2 to py3. see: Strings, Bytes, and Unicode in Python 2 and 3 Unicode strings in Python: A basic tutorial hope this helps!

  @justvanrossum Just noticed it again a couple days ago. Seems to happen after particularly processor-intensive scripts are done running. I'll keep watching.
