Perhaps it might be worth checking the thickness of the x and z.
I’m aware of the thickness problem of x and z. It’s part of the ongoing struggle against the shortcomings of the tool at hand.
I’m in the process of updating the extended latin and alternates.
@Frodo7: I think I was afraid to going too wide… Which is ironic, given the typeface’s name.
Anyway, I fixed both the W and the Y (which really needed it!). The fix for the Y wasn’t the best for consistent spacing, but either that or some funky connection between arms and stem.
About upscaling: either I'm missing something fundamental, or upscaling will prevent me from using curves (which is the base of the Noptical experiment).
If you put a good deal of elbow grease and mousing into “upscaling” this-a-way, you can get your x to look more like this:
By the way, I didn’t knew about “brickstacking”. Its use is a bit awkward, but it can resolve half of my problems! :-)
@Frodo7: In time I will try it too…
As far as I can see it just makes your working grid twice as large, without offering any improvement to the ability to create curves etc. (apart from a slight edge if you are using the quarter-round curved brick itself).
I'm sure that, eventually, one would get used to the fact that 2:2 bricks have to be placed in strange, offset positions - but the biggest drawback of all is that it makes moving highlighted selections of bricks so damned frustrating ... often taking half a dozen goes (or more!) before 'capturing' the highlighted area.
