But, to be honest, Shantell isn’t cut like a real italic font, just a regular font slanted…

I’ll confused here - is that really a single variable font on the market that offer both regular and real italic? I understand that almost everyone here knows what an italic font is, but, I meet some people that think that italic is just an regular font with some angle on it - so, is that a font that offer real italic and regular in one file (a real cut italic)?

I can also answer this (last sentence) - even when using a separate Italic variable font, it’s messy when using the axes, it goes pretty soon to non-italic and can’t be changed… MacOS 14.5 beta4…

I see the axes 'Grade' for both Roboto Serif and Amstelvar on my MacBook Pro...

This is still a problem/bug on MacOS 14.5 with Publisher 2.50b3 for me...

I do, but I have cheated ! I have changed the font in FontCreator to always show all axes...

This is the best new feature! Thanks Serif Labs!!

Really great manual for Affinity Publisher! Professional Look made by a true professional craftmen! Thanks! This may not learn me much, but, my dear wife have bought Affinity Suite universal license - she will be more than happy!

strange? Same place (text styles), but when I point at this V it show nothing, not even one axes… Perhaps this is connected to several versions of Roboto Flex flowing around? I’ll delete this and install another Roboto Flex. Thanks for checking this.

On the opposite Side - on iPad you can’t adjust non of the axes when creating a new Text Style…? Bug?

When we talk about Roboto Flexi 13 different axes, I have hard to believe that the five axes presented can achieve what the eight hidden axes can achieve - I really want the hidden axes IF they can change the fonts looking to be useful, if not, they can be hidden... Downloaded a font yesterday that had 15 axes to play with - everyone of them really nice.

I'm with you - if it's more axes to use, I wanna use them. If the Author wants to hidden them, remove them totally from the font file... Easy.

OK. But, who brings every gadgets on a family birthday party far away?? Better to answer the question than argue about my lack of signature reading...

No. I’m away from home and can’t see your signature in iCabMobile on iPhone… Wouldn’t be better if you tells us right away then just get us some ironic answer?

Do you talking about iPad version now of v.2.50b2?
