# FontForge Glyph Preview

This VS Code extension provides a preview feature for glyph images contained in Spline Font Database files (*.sdf, *.glyph, font.props) used by FontForge.

## Features

- **Glyph Preview**: View glyph images from FontForge files directly within VS Code  

  ![Preview .glyph file](images/preview.png)

- **Glyph Selection**: Browse and select glyphs by name or table view  

  ![Select glyphs by table](images/glyph_table.png)

  ![Select glyphs by list](images/glyph_list.png)

## Usage

1. Open a .sfd or .glyph or font.props file in VS Code.

2. Click the preview button at the top of the editor, or run "FontForge Glyph Preview: Open Preview" or "Open Preview to the Side" from the command palette (Ctrl+Shift+P).

3. The glyph image preview will appear in a side panel.

**Enjoy!**
