Expreviewer

A Ren'Py 7.4.5+ (haven't tested each version) tool that allows the user to see how their LayeredImages look like.

Simply place expreviewer.rpy somewhere in your game folder, launch the game, and press shift + E.

You'll quickly notice a few things:

  • A list of tags in the top left corner (those are the tags that you've entered in expreviewer.rpy).
  • A Use custom layer button in the top right corner (we'll get to it later (later as in 2 lines)).
  • A UI stolen from the launcher (yes, totally).

The amelia button can't be clicked. That's because the tag isn't currently showing. The Use custom layer option allows the user to preview any tag. Turning it off will only allow this for showing tags. Useful for when you're coding expressions as it is.

Let's click on aika, shall we?

Those two buttons, turned and smug are different LayeredImages defined with the same tag.

If a LayeredImage has been defined without anything else,

a special value is used (internally) and NONE is displayed.

If we click on turned,

we can see a bunch of stuff.

  • A list of groups names. Those are the groups that are defined inside the LayeredImage. Clicking those groups will show every attributes that has been defined inside that group.
  • This Current attributes thing in the bottom right corner. As one would've guessed, it shows what attributes are currently used.

Let's change some expressions. I want to close her mouth and put her kid named finger down:

Pretty pog if i do say so myself. And since a new context is created when calling the screen, leaving expreviewer will turn everything back to normal.
