Adjusting the weight axis on variable fonts causes them to fade. It would be much nicer if users could see the weight change as they adjust the sliders.

Where can I find this control?

graphicore commented 4 years ago

Oh, I see I get it in Chromium/Chrome but not in Firefox. Why is this feature crippled on Firefox? :-(

Edit: I can confirm the effect on Linux with Chromium.

Yesterday when I tried it I felt the same. It is extremely annoying!

m4rc1e commented 4 years ago

AFAIK, VFs are still disabled for Firefox.

graphicore commented 4 years ago

Axis Praxis works fine in my Firefox.

felipesanches commented 4 years ago

I can confirm it happens on Firefox Quantum 68.4.1esr (64-bit) running on Debian GNU+Linux version 10.

Firefox (73.0.1), Chrome and Safari have the same (correct) behavior on my Mac (macOS 10.4.6).

This should be fixed very soon

m4rc1e commented 4 years ago

It's fixed and it looks glorious. Thank you!
