Full set of the Canola font (for UI development purpose)

Canola

Project folder for Metapolator with the Canola font

create canola.mp from scratch

The mom command is in https://github.com/graphicore/Atem-MOM/blob/master/bin/mom I symlinked it into my users bin directory as mom.

An import from UFO always creates a "Base-Master". We use the base- prefix as a convention to mark it up.

$ mom init canola.mp
$ mom import -g `cat subset.txt` canolaSource.ufo canola.mp/base-regular

Now you need to set up a first "UI-Master" for Metapolator.

NOTE the master- prefix is important, it tells Metapolator that this is a "UI-Master" (not an Instance-Master and not a Base-Master)

$ mom derive base-regular canola.mp/master-regular

To complete the new "UI-Master" and make it functional a piece of CPS must be inserted:

$ echo "@import 'lib/metapolator/metamaster.cps';" > canola.mp/data/com.metapolator/CPS/master-regular.master.cps

The new Master master-regular should be added to the "session" a mechanism that is intended to make large projects managable by not loading everything at once. Edit the file canola.mp/data/com.metapolator/project.yaml to tell Metapolator that it should open the master on startup:

session:
  masters: [master-regular]

The resulting Metapolator-Project .mp file (directory) looks like this:

$ tree canola.mp
