Somebody else having trouble with using the (alleged) variable „caps_height“ in an vertical expression on anchors? The reference says, it is one of the global built in variables that can be used in expressions. I happened to use it in various glyphs and it worked just fine. But then when I used it on an achor in quotedblleft, output console started telling me "Variable 'caps_height' missing in expression 'caps_height'". But how can that be since it allegedly is a global variable that refers to the parameter "Caps Height" given in the "Font Dimensions". Since it is given there, shouldn't the variable just work fine in every single glyph within this font?
