Minor stroke issue with 孓 (U+5B53), ExtraLight master only
Marcus98T opened this issue · 2 comments
The ending connecting stroke in the middle of the 了 part looks to be a bit too thin, as circled.
So checking in Glyphs, it looks like it's in the wrong place compared to 子 (U+5B50). Please fix, by moving the top of the second stroke of 了 a bit lower, and maybe shifting the ending connecting stroke a bit to the left. I might see how it is done later.
The fix should basically reference the shape of 子 (U+5B50):
UPDATE: Also please adjust the last throw stroke in 孓 for balance and symmetry. Move the upper left end until it's symmetrized with the lower right end.
In addition to the last throw stroke balance adjustment I just edited into my original post, the position of the 了 part is a bit too high compared to the other 了/子 components. It should be levelled out to make it more consistent. Heavy weight is also affected, although the middle connecting part should be fine.
Fix has been verified. While still not perfect, it looks more balanced.
I would have personally preferred if the last throw stroke would have been more symmetrical (similar to LiSong Pro, marked in green), but anyway the adjusted character does follow other Simplified Chinese typefaces with this kind of slight asymmetrical balance, so I guess this issue is resolved for now.
