Not compatible with format3 of Glyphs app #1001

When I am trying to use glyphs2ufo on format3 files, it reports this error

AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute '_parent'

Then I tried to use a format2file. It works perfectly.

The support for Glyphs 3 files is almost finished (you can check the Glyphs3 branch).

Do I need to reinstall the glyphsLib or download the brand and drag it to the glyphs2ufo dir?

schriftgestalt commented 2 months ago

the easiest is to clone the git repo, switch to the "Glyphs3_Merge" branch, open the repo folder in Terminal and do pip3 install -e . that installs glyphsLib into the current python. You might need to do pip3 uninstall glyphsLib first to remove the previous version.

Thank you! It's all done!
