Overlapping weights, plugin/tool?

Can anyone recommend a plugin or tool that lets you overlap a selection (or all) instances of a typeface, such as in the illustration attached here?

I'm using Glyphs App, by the way.

Thanks

  The ShowInterpolations plugin does that.

  Note that the darker the weight the more it has to overshoot to appear the same size. Yes, that makes such illustration less attractive.  :-)

  Thanks for the feedback. Reason I asked was not to create attractive illustration but to be able to better compare instances when designing a typeface :-)
