A plugin for GlyphsApp
It superimposes a group of predefined glyphs in the background of your letters. This can be both pretty helpful in the beginning of a design as well as at intermediate progress where quick proof overview is needed.
There will be a pro version availabe right here in a couple of days. Check back for a detailed list of all the new features.
