my problem is that my circles (dots) are not round (font opened with Indesign CS5.5) I have downloaded ETHproductions fs dot serif. Here is the same problem. (picture // magenta = 100% round)
Is this normal … or a bug?
I have used horizontal and vertical brick size = 2 and grid scale = 1
I think staff is aware of this issue.

One great thing about FontStruct is that we just need to fix one brick and all FontStructions using that brick will be instantaneously fixed. Drawing a circle with TrueType béziers is not easy though and they will, as will.i.ૐ describes, get wobblier as your circle gets smaller.
(If someone wants to copy something from the answers above … I will soon put the font back to private!)
When I was editing my font Audio 2012, I had to replace all the circles, but it would be great if we didn't have to go through that :)
No fonts need to be redrawn. When a brick changes, that change effects every FontStruction which uses that brick.
In my opinion the full circle should be globally improved! The new circle in this font looks much better!
But anyway, I'm very confused now. I didn't change the full circle at all. I thought this font was using the smaller circles which I did improve. So this font has not changed at all!
I need to look into this a bit further. More later.
I think all the circle and ring bricks are ok now. Not perfect but ok. There may still be some room for improvement but not much.
One thing to note is that circles will always look a little different when downloaded. They sometimes look awful in the preview widget but fine in a font editor or a desktop application.
**Geekery alert** if, in the future, we add an option to download OpenType fonts with postscript outlines rather than the TrueType fonts we export currently, many circles will look better as it's easier to approximate a circle with cubic than quadratic béziers (so they say).
