- self_strictAxisNames controls whether unknown axis names are ignored when reading locations.
- if we don't have any axes in the document then we don't know the axis names, but we still need to read locations.
- after reading all locations we can then reconstruct axis objects.
- also set the copyInfo flag after choosing one.
__removeAxesFromDesignSpace(path) takes a designspace path, reads the file and deletes the <axes> element. This is to make a test file for reading a file without axes.
- mutators for info, kerning and glyphs are lazily constructed. Only make them if they're asked for.
- getInfoMutator() makes / returns info mutator.
- getKerningMutator() makes / returns kerning mutator
- getGlyphMutator() makes / returns glyph mutator
- loadFonts attempts to load the master UFOs and determine the defautl font by looking for the copyInfo flag, or if that is not found, by using mutator's findBias. Will warn if there is a conflct, but the copyInfo flag is leading.
- makeInstance() returns a font object for the asked location. You can decide to save it or not elsewher.
- generateUFO() makes UFOs on disk for all defined instances.
Still largely untested. Note: this requires an updated mutatorMath.
- aims to do work the same way as mutatorMath.ufo.document
- generate all instances as UFO
- handle glyph masters, info, kerning, lib
More testing is needed.
- independent reader / writer object for designspace documents.
- imports and exports easy to subclass objects for instance, source and axis data.
- roundtrips
- intended to be compatible with use in MutatorMath, Superpolatpor and varlib.
