5. The names of all the glyphs that match the criterion will appear in the
list.
Select the glyph name that you want (its preview appears in the
preview panel) and press OK, or enter more information to narrow
your search.
Use the buttons at the bottom of the dialog box for additional
features:
to select all glyphs in the list
to mark all glyphs in the list in red.
These features are very useful for managing big fonts. For example: open
the Choose Glyph dialog box; change it to Names mode and enter ‘A’ as
the search pattern. In a standard Latin font it will list all glyphs that begin
with the uppercase A:
A
Aacute
Acircumflex
Adieresis
AE
Agrave
Aring
Atilde
If you mark or select them, you can easily create a glyph group that you can
use in advanced features, like class-based kerning or OpenType features.
