Nodes always Visible?

Hi,

Do nodes always have to be on? If I toggle the Nodes on the view menu it always has a tick next to it. I can switch TT points on or off but not nodes...

Using Windows 10. I may have posted this question as a guest so apologies if I have duplicated this...

Thanks,

Richard

There are two view modes: Nodes or TrueType points. If you are editing a TrueType glyph, then you have both options available. If you are editing a PostScript glyph, then you only have the Nodes option. These view modes are related to the fact that curves are stored differently in TrueType and PostScript fonts.

Note: These are not toggle switches: select either TT points or Nodes.

I understand. I was thinking that the nodes view would display nodes or not. I suppose it would be nice to see a 'clean' version of the glyph.
