`reverse` gives strange results

When using r=1 inside of a Style() method

@animation((1080, 540), timeline=50, bg=hsl(0.6))
def wave(f):
    return (Glyphwise("COLDTYPE", lambda g:
        Style(Font.ColdtypeObviously(), 200,
              wdth=f.adj(-g.i*3).e("seio", 1), r=1))
        .align(f.a.r)
        .f(1))

(Same as your sample code, but with the r=1 added)

Result:

I tried with different fonts, but that does not change anything

.reversePens() as a method call on the Style() however seems to work

@animation((1080, 540), timeline=50, bg=hsl(0.6))
def wave(f):
    return (Glyphwise("COLDTYPE", lambda g:
        Style(Font.ColdtypeObviously(), 200,
              wdth=f.adj(-g.i*3).e("seio", 1),
			  tu=-100,
			  ))
		.align(f.a.r)
		.reversePens()
		.ro()
		.fssw(0, 1, 1)
		)

You know, now that you bring it up, I have been finding it annoying lately to type so many _ characters, just from an ergonomic perspective on US keyboards, and _'s add more chars to a give line, and also yeah DrawBot is pretty strictly camelCase… maybe I’ve had a change of heart!

The good news is pretty much everything in coldtype is meant to be short, so actually lots of method names try to be a single word (if not a single character). Will keep thinking on this!

Cool! Went ahead and added that exception, will be included in the next release (0.7.6)

.reversePens() and .reverse_pens() (and .rp()) all work (aliases to a single function) — early on in Coldtype I was following a camelCase style but have been moving to the snake_case style since that’s the PEP8 style, so it’s a little bit of a mess but wanted to keep some camelCase things in there for backwards-compatibility. Will come out before a 1.0 release, but should be all good for now to use the camelCase version
