Adding an empty keycap for keyboard letters #3

Closed dortamiguel closed 1 year ago

Hi, thank you very much for the font, it's really nice.

I was thinking that it will be nice to add also a keycap background for each letter in the keyboard like this ones

Is it something that can be done?

Thank you

If I understand your request correctly that would require creating a multi-layered font, which is possible, but none of the tools I use support layered fonts, so I'm afraid I can't commit any time to implementing it.

I see thank you

A much easier solution would be to add a general background shape in whatever engine you're using to display the font.

dortamiguel commented 2 years ago

Oh yes, just having an empty keycap will make it easy for me to layer them both

Shinmera commented 2 years ago

Ok, I can see about repurposing a glyph for that.
