Dear list,

I'm trying to use the BabelStone Flags font, with colored flags of many countries,available freely under the SIL Open Font License 1.1 at: https://babelstone.co.uk/Fonts/Download/BabelStoneFlagsDual.ttf https://babelstone.co.uk/Fonts/Download/BabelStoneFlagsDual.ttf

In the MWE below, there is a spurious “at” in the first time that the definition of the symbol for the Brazilian flag is used, but no problem when the definition for the flag of Portugal is used or even when the symbol for the Brazilian flag is used a second time. How to correct

...

behavior?

MWE:

\definefontfeature[colored][colr=yes] \definefontsynonym[flags][file:BabelStoneFlagsDual.ttf*colored at 7pt] \definesymbol[BR][\getglyphdirect{flags}{\char"F0023}] \definesymbol[PT][\getglyphdirect{flags}{\char"F00A1}]

\starttext

Brasil \symbol[BR]

Portugal \symbol[PT]

Brasil \symbol[BR]

\stoptext

here is an alternative (call by name):

\definesymbol[BR][{\getnamedglyphdirect{flags}{br}}] \definesymbol[PT][{\getnamedglyphdirect{flags}{pt}}]

now, because you want it smaller i'll add this

\definesymbol[BR][{\getnamedglyphdirectscaled{.7}{flags}{br}}] \definesymbol[PT][{\getnamedglyphdirectscaled{.7}{flags}{pt}}]

in the next upload
