Description

Tried running fontmake with my Glyphs file (version 3) and it kept saying "AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'position'".

But worked when I changed the file saving format to Glyphs version 2.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by reproducing the AttributeError with a Glyphs 3 file and compare it with the working Glyphs 2 format; done means fontmake accepts the Glyphs 3 source and compiles it successfully.
