Add `layerName` attribute to the sourcedescriptor object
Read and write layerName.
Add a source layer test.
XXX this also disables the test_check() test for the moment because it generates odd results.
It looks like this was (at least partially) implemented in
f01c86ca9b
Should fix https://github.com/fonttools/fonttools/issues/1237
I'm still not sure about that "File a bug." when AdvWidthMap is None,
but either LsbMap or RsbMap are not None..
And we still need to add tests for this though.
Improve varLib model algorithm.
This, basically means any varfont built that had an unusual master
configuration will change when rebuilt.
Here's a good test: a two-axis with 8 masters at unusual locations:
2-----------------5----------3
| |
| 7 |
| |
| 6 |
| |
| |
| |
0-----------4----------------1
Previously, the reach of master 3 (Black Extended) would
have started from A=.4, ie, the A position of master 4.
It now correctly starts from 0. Same thing with masters
after it. Ie, master 5 gets a span on the A axis from
0 to 1, whereas before it was getting from .4 to 1.
Previously, the on-axis masters always cut the space. They
don't anymore. That's more consistent, and fixes the main
issue Erik showed at TYPO Labs 2017. Same issue was also
causing the reach of master 3 to be limited, which I think
is the issue being discussed in the linked issue. Both should
be fixed.
It's hard to describe exactly what happened before / after.
Best to read the actual support values:
Before:
Sorted locations:
$ ./fonttools varLib.models 0,0 0,1 1,0 1,1 .4,0 .6,1 .5,.5 .7,.7
[{},
{'A': 0.4},
{'A': 1.0},
{'B': 1.0},
{'A': 1.0, 'B': 1.0},
{'A': 0.6, 'B': 1.0},
{'A': 0.5, 'B': 0.5},
{'A': 0.7, 'B': 0.7}]
Supports:
[{},
{'A': (0.0, 0.4, 1.0)},
{'A': (0.4, 1.0, 1.0)},
{'B': (0.0, 1.0, 1.0)},
{'A': (0.4, 1.0, 1.0), 'B': (0.0, 1.0, 1.0)},
{'A': (0.4, 0.6, 1.0), 'B': (0.0, 1.0, 1.0)},
{'A': (0.4, 0.5, 1.0), 'B': (0.0, 0.5, 1.0)},
{'A': (0.5, 0.7, 1.0), 'B': (0.5, 0.7, 1.0)}]
After:
$ ./fonttools varLib.models 0,0 0,1 1,0 1,1 .4,0 .6,1 .5,.5 .7,.7
Sorted locations:
[{},
{'A': 0.4},
{'A': 1.0},
{'B': 1.0},
{'A': 1.0, 'B': 1.0},
{'A': 0.6, 'B': 1.0},
{'A': 0.5, 'B': 0.5},
{'A': 0.7, 'B': 0.7}]
Supports:
[{},
{'A': (0, 0.4, 1.0)},
{'A': (0.4, 1.0, 1.0)},
{'B': (0, 1.0, 1.0)},
{'A': (0, 1.0, 1.0), 'B': (0, 1.0, 1.0)},
{'A': (0, 0.6, 1.0), 'B': (0, 1.0, 1.0)},
{'A': (0, 0.5, 1.0), 'B': (0, 0.5, 1.0)},
{'A': (0.5, 0.7, 1.0), 'B': (0.5, 0.7, 1.0)}]
TODO: We should add this as a test case.
There's another improvement I want to make, but that's separate.
We drop hinting by simply changing ValueFormat, without cleaning
up the actual ValueRecords. This was causing failure at this assert
if font was subsetted without hinting and then passed to mutator.
