What do you need to do? Sometimes, after saving a file (e.g. the original .ase file), we want to export it automatically to other format (.png), or export to a sprite sheet, or export it with a larger size. How would you like to do it? Specifying in a configuration dialog what are the post-save hooks for a specific file. There are some options:
- Save a resized version (it's a very common case to publish pixel art on the web)
- Save with other color mode (convert from RGB to Indexed with a specific palette).
- Export sprite sheet (we should be able to configure the sheet parameters as "File > Export Sprite Sheet" command)
See that all these actions can be combined.
In the best case, the available/possible actions could be configured in gui.xml file.
Note: The real implementation could be done using a scripting language. Anyway this is for a future issue.
Original issue: http://code.google.com/p/aseprite/issues/detail?id=138
Some of this will be available with slices tool #721, the idea is quite simple: If we load/save a file (e.g. test.png
) and there is a corresponding .aseprite-data
file (e.g. test.png.aseprite-data
), we will load/save data in that XML file depending on the content. For example, if we have:
<sprite>
<slices />
</sprite>
Slices should be saved in the .aseprite-data
file. The same might be true for other elements like <frames>
, <layers>
, <cels>
, etc.
