You can do this using a macro like this: _-Text "X" _Pause _SelLast _Explode _SimplifyCrv
You can easily define an Alias or Keyboard shortcut for this macro.
I’ve played with some single line fonts I found in other posts but they were a bit odd sometimes. Like the name of the font wouldn’t display in the text dialog right or other weirdness (its been a year since I tried it)
Alias may work if the font stuff isn’t funky if not I can try a combo of importing. I’ll have to experiment tonight for sure.
I’m afraid that is “normal” behavior when previewing single stroke fonts in the dialog box.
Rhino is merely using built-in Windows stuff here.
When I use a single stroke font in MS Word, for instance, I get the same funkiness:
You might want to try the RhSS font then.
(It will also create curves for æ ø å - not Single Stroke, though, but the MecSoft font doesn’t make anything at all for those letters)
