Enhancement : Option to switch to repeated preview

When drawing tiles, it's useful to see the sprite repeated in the preview.

There is already a hidden setting that enables that (javascript:pskl.UserSettings.set(pskl.UserSettings.TILED_PREVIEW,!pskl.UserSettings.get(pskl.UserSettings.TILED_PREVIEW))) need to add a UI to control this setting now.

That would be a neat feature, does the tiles around the original image are interactive? Can we continue a line started in the center tile to an adjacent one? That would be very helpful.

Actually it was nothing really fancy, just a way to have a repeated preview of your sprite. Can be useful when you just want to create a pattern.

Sorry I was a bit vague ! Want to focus on making a decent spriting tool before we go into other territories :) Edited the issue name to avoid confusion.

Fix will be released on v0.5.0

Does this feature have a control on the GUI within production yet? I love this feature, but I can't always remember the javascript console command of the top of my head :p

(Also, as a random side note THANK YOU FOR MAKING PISKEL!! Using Photoshop was such a pain in the tail for working on pixel art, and it's wonderful having such a great free tool that's accessible anywhere.)

In the application settings panel, there is now a "repeated preview" checkbox :

Not the best UI ever, but better than having to run JS manually :)

And thanks for the nice words !
