<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><div><div>Hello Steve (and everybody)<br></div>I'm working on my bookchapter on SW and I'm analysing your work on Unicode.<br></div>I've a question... I hope I'll menage to ask it clearly in english!<br></div>When you add a modifier "R2-3-4-...-16" to an HANDSHAPE it will change the hand and the angle.... when you add a modifier "F2-3-4-5-6" it will modify the side of the hand you will see... And for the moment no problem! For each hanshape you have 96 possibilities.<br></div>When you add a modifier "R2-...-16" to a HAND MOVEMENT it will modify the side of rotation and the angle... when you add a modifier "F2...6" it will modify the hand that is moving (left, right, both). HERE IS MY QUESTION... for this modification you just need no-F (F1), F2 and F3... you dont need F4, F5 and F6 because for every movement you just have 48 possibilities...<br></div><div>1) what happen if I use F4, F5 and F6 fo modify a hand movement?<br></div>2) F4 will act exactly as no-F (and F2=F5 and F3=F6)? or will I get a "void" caracter, so I can't add F4 to a hand movement? I think that you are using opentype to create a good font for SW, right? I'm not very good in this field, but I think that this problem belong to opentype not to unicode, right? So what have you done with opentype....<br></div>3) If I'm a researcher and I need to find every single Hand Movement with F2, how can I get also the one with F5 (F2=F5) without going crazy doing strange queries... I reformulate... is there something (not me!) that will know that HandMov+F2 is the same that HandMov+F5 and will give me both when I just serach HandMOv+F2?<br><br></div>I hope I've been clear enought...<br><br><div><div><div><div><div>Thanks</div><div>Claudia</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div><div><br><br><br clear="all"><div><div><div><div><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms,sans-serif">Claudia S.
