Erik<p>An update for LTR Very Bauble! The original characterset was a bit sparse, so I added, oh, let's see, an asterism, at, sterling, questiondown, Eacute, Ohungarumlaut, Icircumflex, Scommaaccent, Lslash, Adieresis.alt and, let's see, about 2500 more of their friends! All animated with lines, thorns and pips. One axis, five masters. These letters were already having a party and now they are having a ball, waving their new flag and banners. <a href="https://typo.social/tags/ad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ad</span></a> <a href="https://typo.social/tags/update" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>update</span></a> <a href="https://typo.social/tags/tuscan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tuscan</span></a> <a href="https://typo.social/tags/variablefont" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>variablefont</span></a> <a href="https://letterror.com/verybauble/index.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">letterror.com/verybauble/index</span><span class="invisible">.html</span></a></p>
Edgar Walthert<p>If you use the Affinity suite, be aware that the last update to 2.6.0 has broken the support of custom variable axes.</p><p>The sliders are only showing the defined instances and also use the internal rather than the external coordinates.</p><p>And yes I documented it and filed a complaint.</p><p><a href="https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/228845-variable-fonts-with-custom-axes-no-longer-work-in-affinty-260/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">forum.affinity.serif.com/index</span><span class="invisible">.php?/topic/228845-variable-fonts-with-custom-axes-no-longer-work-in-affinty-260/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://typo.social/tags/VariableFont" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VariableFont</span></a> <a href="https://typo.social/tags/Affinity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Affinity</span></a> <a href="https://typo.social/tags/BugReport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BugReport</span></a></p>
Font Spectrum<p>To animate Silver Coil one best loops from 100 to 700 ♾️. By looping from 700 to 100 in the background, one can create the illusion of a full 360° tube.</p><p><a href="https://fontspectrum.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">fontspectrum.com</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://typo.social/tags/Animation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Animation</span></a> <a href="https://typo.social/tags/VariableFont" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VariableFont</span></a> <a href="https://typo.social/tags/SilverCoil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SilverCoil</span></a></p>
Edgar Walthert<p>This week I learned about MT-Shift, a <a href="https://typo.social/tags/VariableFont" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VariableFont</span></a> that is able to shift from one letter into another. Every combination, even letter to emoji or letter to pattern is possible.<br>It is created by the design student Simon Tuffer <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://typo.social/@simontruffer" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>simontruffer</span></a></span> from Bern and really well documented on <a href="https://motiontype.xyz" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">motiontype.xyz</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> 👏👏👏</p>

TainomeCHAINSAWS ARE SO COOL<br> Yet another variable font experiment! I never thought I would say this, but I had to dig deep into the history of chainsaws to draw the different borders. This one was difficult to do as Glyphs border components were not really made for rotating shapes.
