    Hi Sylvain,

    this is the same as:

       \definefontfamily[face1][rm][gabriola]

    Just in case, "slanted" is an already defined feature. It slants the
    font.

    BTW, the documentation is clear
    
(http://texdoc.net/texmf-dist/doc/context/presentations/bachotex/2018/bachotex-2018-fonteffects.pdf#search=fontfeature):
    font features should be defined as such before being deployed.

    A ConTeXt (and not OpenType) font feature?

    "effect={}" may be reading default values (it might be intended behavior
    or not).

    But it also could be reading or calculating from previously defined
    values.

    This might be a bug, because of all the code improvements.

    I’m reporting a proper bug.


Thank you very much for the explanation and the bug report!

Just in case it helps: the line shrinking disappears with an additional "delta=0":

    \definefontfamily[face3][rm][gabriola][it={features:{default, effect={width=1.0, delta=0}}}]


Don't set the values within \definefontfamily:

\definefontfeature [myfeature] [effect={width=1.0, delta=0}]

\definefontfamily[face3][rm][gabriola][it={features:{default,myfeature}}]
