Overall, I've found Glyphs Mini 2 to be very powerful and a good price compared to competitors. Some settings and tools aren't intuitive at first but were easily figured out after reading a few tutorials. My one complaint is the description says there's a "Roughen" filter included but that doesn't seem to exist in this Mini version.

I have an older intel iMac and previously used Fontographer. This program does the job as well or better than Fontographer did - granted, the high-end snazzy features are good for some, but I don't need them. I can knock off all the font variants and use them for my graphics business just fine and the price is quite reasonable.

I like several things about Glyphs Mini, but I am still getting used to it.* I can't find where to change the background and foreground colors for the glyph editing window. The font / character map window obeys Dark Mode and regular Light Mode. I really would prefer a Dark Mode for editing characters / glyphs.* I'm used to dragging out handles for the bézier control points with option-drag in old Fontographer and Freehand and some other vector graphics programs. But so far, I have not figured out the mouse/keyboard combo to do this from exisitng points. I feel silly. What am I missing? I am sure there's a way to do this. -- I'm doing very basic construction plus trying copy and paste from Affinity Designer or other vector drawing apps.* Glyphs Mini does not appear to import / export old .fog (Fontographer format or the newer FontLab 6 or 7 formats, .vfc and .ufo . This would be so useful, particularly since Fontographer no longer works with the newest macOS system, and .fog and FontLab users might want to switch to Glyphs / Glyphs Mini, as I am exploring to do now. I have old files I'd love to import into Glyphs. (Note: FontLab 6 and 7 allow importing .fog files and exporting to .glyphs format, but it would be so useful to be abel to go back and forth, round trip, when getting used to Glyphs.It's highly possible I'm missing how to do things that the program.already does. -- I am liking a lot about Glyphs Mini as I discover how to do things.Oh, how I wish for a vector graphics auto-trace tool, or a plugin for Illustrator and for Affinity Designer that would make tracing scanned images easier, and another that might make creating fonts from vector graphics artwork easier, rather than copy and paste individual characters.

If you have a Mac M1, M2, M3, etc... you cannot open this app because it was written for Intel processors. I will not install Rosetta on my machine because of the horrific bugs it presents (like trying to kill your SSD by over swapping memory for no good reason). Therefore, I can't even use this thing and I keep waiting patiently for an update, but it's well past due long ago.
