A plugin for GlyphsApp

All my plugins: GitHub

This tool displays all glyphs of your font that use your currently selected one as a component. It’s a visual realtime feedback of inestimable value in a daily workflow. Especially for Hangul (Korean) type designers “Show Recyclers” already proved incredible beneficing. But even in Latin or related projects you’ll never want to work without anymore.

Glyphs 3:

There is a version for Glyphs 3 now, you can get that one directly in the plugin manager of Glyphs 3. Download a fully functional, time limited tiral version and if you like it, purchase directly from there.

How To:

• Toggle the stems via View > Show Recyclers
• Double click on any of the minituare Recyclers to add it to the left of your current glyph.

Options in the context menu:

• Change the size with a slider, the displayed glyphs will wrap to rows in order to fit into your window width.
• Toggle superimposition of all recyclers behind your current glyph.

NOTE: Sometimes there’s a little display glitch for a sec. I’m trying to remove that soon. Also it can happen, that the double click activates another glyph in the Edit Tab instead of the recycler. Fixes will come soon in a free update.
