Typeface 4.0

List view
Switch to the brand new List view to get a tabular overview of your fonts with detailed font metadata.
The List view is not just a simple table with technical font info — fonts are grouped by family and display useful aggregate data for all fields. Such that you can quickly see which families contain fonts from multiple locations, different versions or manufacturers.
The Style Range graph in the style column presents a visual summary of family font styles. This allows you to see at a glance whether a family contains a wide range of font styles, or just a single one. The graph marks font members by weight: light on the left to bold on the right, and has separate indicators for roman/italic and multiple variants.
You can toggle between (tabular data) and (previews) using the view button in the toolbar. Alternatively choose > from the main menu, or press Command1 for Grid, Command3 for List.
Columns can be adjusted by right clicking (or Control-clicking) on the table header, or by long pressing on the toolbar view button. Click on any column header to change the order of your fonts.

Partial families
To make working with the List view more intuitive there has been an under-the-hood change of how families are grouped. Previously grouped families would always show all fonts in a family, even if not all family members would match your current tag or filters. For example if you attached a tag to single regular font, the grid still showed the full family including light and bold when browsing that tag.
Now both the Grid and List support partial families. Families will only show the family members that exactly match the filters and tags you have selected. This is particularly useful if you have duplicate fonts from separate locations. Selecting a location in the sidebar will now exclusively show fonts from that location, and family members from other locations will not be grouped together anymore.
Enjoy!
