outside the app DrawBot, when using DrawBot as a module, you have to call drawBot.newDrawing() to reset the drawing stack.
see https://www.drawbot.com/content/canvas/pages.html#drawBot.newDrawing
its also adviced to call drawBot.endDrawing() when you are done.

Adding bezierPath.expandStroke(width, lineCap="round", lineJoin="round", miterLimit=10) (thanks to Bahman Eslami)
Improved internal OpenType feature tags setting
Improved complex formattedString type setting
Improved alignment with text() and FormattedString
Added a DrawBot frontend for pip/PyPI to make it super easy to install third-party packages: see menu Python -> Install Python Packages...
Fixed text stroke behavior (but is a breaking change): strokeWidth on text no longer scales with the fontSize
Removed support for .mov export on 10.15 and up (QTKit is no longer supported there)
Fixed extracting single frames from .gif files
Improved setup.py, so drawbot-as-a-module can be easily installed with pip using a github URL
All test now run on Travis CI (and soon also on GitHub Actions)
Removed Python 2 code
Many small issues were fixed
DrawBot uninstalls the font after the script is done, so its only accessible during run time of the script.
There are some issues when reinstalling a font in the app itself where the postscript name is the still the same.
This has been fixed upstream. Will try to built a fresh release after the weekend
see the release notes: https://forum.drawbot.com/topic/203/drawbot3-121-is-released
numpy is not embedded into DrawBot and the latest DrawBot is python 3.7 and it can only add local packages installed with the same python version.
If you want to use numpy you need to install 3.7, get it here https://www.python.org/downloads/ and install numpy locally
good luck!
get a pre-release version here http://static.typemytype.com/drawBot/DrawBot10.15.dmg
see the pull request on github to see the changes and follow up the discussion
CTFeatureSelectorIdentifier is not available anymore on 10.15, let me check
Jumping to python 3.7
If you use external packages you will need to install them for python 3.7. If you don't have python 3.7 installed you will need to do that first.
Improved syntax highlighting for python 3
Fallback fonts are also used in a svg context.
listNamedInstances() lists all named instances for a variable font.
BezierPath objects have bezierPath.line(pt1, pt2) and bezierPath.polygon(pt1, pt2, ...) methods.
Update internal packages!
