All other faces work fine: switching from 1 or 2 to any other face and switching from any other face to any face (including 1 and 2) works fine.

This means that in fonts with only two faces it is impossible to view the second face and for files with more than 2 faces you can view the second face only by first going to face 3 or higher and then to face 2 (then to view face 1 again you need to go to face 3 or higher again and then type in 1 in the text).

A related but different issue is the inability to view the different faces on variable .ttf files.
