When I define 2 alternatives in a Character Variation feature, Affinity shows 4 in the menu. The first (default) entry is repeated at the end. When I define 16 alternative glyphs, affinity shows 18 in the menu. Example: https://twitter.com/FontFabrik/status/1362050899049332739 I also wonder if, and where, tooltip, sampletext and parameters are going to show up in the interface: cv03: name: Ampersand collection tooltip: I love ampersands sampletext: A&B, c&d, 1&2 parameters: - Aligns with capitals - Small for Small Caps - Italic e scripty swashy (InDesign completely crashes if fonts contain Character Variations built according to the specifications on their website haha)

So this faulty behavior was mentioned two years ago and still is not fixed? That's worse than Adobe :-) When I want to zoom in or out I always press control first. Small finger is closer to the control key. Or I hit three keys at the same time, Ctrl, Alt, Space, to zoom out. But it never works, very annoying. I other apps and situations you HAVE to press ctrl first, to avoid typing a space.

2 more reasons why 1bit is needed: - some type design applications only accept 1-bit clipboard content to be pasted (in the background for tracing). - I design/produce pixel fonts and symbols for consumer products: very often in 1-bit space. The Paint Brush and the Pixel tools should get special behavior in 1-bit mode: when starting to paint on a black pixel it should work as an eraser. And I wish the would be a way to make straight diagonal lines drawn with these tool snap live to grid-friendly angles. (1:1 (45 degree), 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, 1:6, 1:6) so that diagonal bitmap lines get perfect patters.
