@JanakaCB Can you please test with this latest font build and post an update? https://github.com/mooniak/abhaya-libre-font/blob/main/fonts/variable/AbhayaLibre%5Bwght%5D.ttf
When checked with the version mentioned above, it works perfectly. Moreover, it needs a following character (a letter or a space, NOT the Return/Enter command) to invoke the combination correctly. Please take a look at the image below.
Why does it require this following character to invoke the correct combination? (Anyhow, there are about zero instances when it will be used without a following letter or space. So, it could have remained as it is without any tweak until someone reports there is a use case.)
** For someone interested to know what this issue is all about, I am adding some context below:
The glyph mentioned above - ද්යා් - should not invoke the stylistic set, but ද්යෝ should. Think of it like this:
Can you type any of these - යා් මා් පා් - in Unicode? No. Because there is no use of that combination without the Kombuwa - ෙ - in front of them. Suppose you place a Kombuwa in front, and then they become valid combinations such as යෝ මෝ පෝ, and likewise if you put a Kombuwa in front of ද්යා් , it will invoke the custom compact glyph ද්යෝ without any issue.
This glyph does not invokes under the relevant stylistic set setting.
