InkTrapGenerator — Plugin for Glyphs

Posts: 1
Hi everyone,
I made a plugin for Glyphs that adds ink traps. You can pick one of three shapes — conic, flat, or rounded — or a chamfer if you set the depth to 0. The depth can be a fixed value or a % of the master's stem, so it follows the weight.

The plugin has a cap that keeps the trap from going past the stroke thickness, and you can apply it to every joint or just the nodes you select. A couple of things worth knowing: it runs on Glyphs 3 and 4, needs the Vanilla module, and works on the active master.

Feel free to use it, it's a 1.0 version.
Feedback, bug reports and ideas very welcome!
