While editing a complex glyph, you may want to exclusively edit one path, and keep the other paths as they are. Also through the context menu, you can Expand Outlines in order to get the closed final outlines as they would appear in the exported compiled font. Once you have set up a graphic style of a path, you can Copy and Paste Attributes from one path to another via the context menu. Stroke endings (available both live and in the Offset Path filter): select a path ending (the first or last node in an open path), and then choose any of the available line butt styles displayed on the little buttons in the bottom right corner.Useful for stencil designs, and for illustrations. Control shape order through Filter > Shape Order. Mask: if a closed path is defined as masking, then it will be subtracted from any pre-ordered shapes.Fill: fill color or gradient of a closed outline.If you want a more precise distribution, consider a higher Subdivision in Font Info > Other. Example: 11 units will result in an expansion of 5 units on the inside, and 6 on the outside. However, if it is an uneven number, the outside expansion will receive the extra unit. The latter will spread half the expansion on the outside, and half inside. Stroke placement: inside, outside or expanding equally in and out.Stroke width: width of the expanded stroke in units.But now, it is live and visible within Edit view, and you get to apply all kinds of graphic attributes: In the past, this has been possible already with filters like Offset Path and their respective custom parameters.
