Combining --trim and --sheet-pack with --border-padding, --shape-padding and/or --inner-padding

[jameswilddev]

Hello.

Is it possible to combine --trim and --sheet-pack with --border-padding, --shape-padding or --inner-padding when invoking the CLI?

I am testing with the following .ase:

player.zip

Using the following to try and pack frames as nearly as possible but have 1px between each border:

aseprite --batch --trim --sheet-pack --shape-padding 1 --border-padding 1 --sheet player.png player.ase

As seen, this has dropped the --border-padding and --shape-padding options; we get bleed in-engine around the edges.

Dropping only the --sheet-pack option re-enables padding, but as the sheet isn't well packed on many sprites we lose a lot of texture memory and on some platforms brush up against texture size limits.

aseprite --batch --trim --shape-padding 1 --border-padding 1 --sheet player.png player.ase

Is there a way to combine these behaviours, such as this?

Thank you.

@jameswilddev at this moment padding doesn't work when we pack the sheet. I'll see if I can do something about this issue.

I'm currently in dire need of this feature. If it's not in the pipeline, can someone point me towards the class where this should be implemented? If I find the time I can try to fix it & submit a pull request.

I've written a little tool you can use in the meantime https://github.com/Nuuf/aseprite-packer
Basically you first export with aseprite and then if you need padding and/or border you can use this tool to add that. Has a CLI so you can combine the two.

Feel free to ask me any questions of you can't get it working.
