Show Stems
Mark Frömberg · Mark Frömberg
A GlyphsApp plugin that displays real-time stem measurements during outline editing, highlighting distances that match saved font dimensions.
About
Show Stems places a measurement line across the glyph canvas that remains active while editing curves or applying transformation tools such as the RMX Scaler. Distances that match the font's stored dimensions are highlighted in green; near-matches trigger a red warning badge showing how far off the measurement is. A Pro version adds a moveable horizontal beam, italic angle display, direction indicators on each badge, and virtual overlap removal for accurate measurement without altering real outlines.
Classification
This is not a typeface but a GlyphsApp plugin for measuring stem distances during font editing. No typeface category applies; classified as display as the closest available option, though this is a tool entry rather than a type design.
