Attempting to switch off default "calt" feature for FormattedString fails, string does not render about drawbot HOT 9 CLOSED

Have you checked with listOpenTypeFeatures if the font contains the 'calt' feature?

A Test run with this little snippet gave exactly 0 fonts on my machine .

fonts = installedFonts()

for font in fonts:
    l = listOpenTypeFeatures( font )
    if not l:
        continue
    if 'calt' in l:
        print font, l

There is an issue with a calt feature, this is automatically enabled by CoreText. Switching it off prevent the replacement in an attributed string with a NSGlyphInfo. Im investigating...

Yes – I know it’s there, and I can see it being on. :)

PS. For what it’s worth, I just realized that calt=False actually appears to work fine when the FormattedString was put together using append(), just not for glyphs appended via appendGlyph().

This should be fixed in ff3ce72

.appendGlyph(...) should always disable the caltfeature, I guess this is the only one that is automatically on. If there are more features on by default, please report.

That was fast :D Thank you very much!
Are changes here automatically carried over to the drawBotRoboFontExtension? (I’m using drawBot as a module currently)
