Hello there, welcome to the latest version of the Lospec Pixel Editor. As you can see, we changed
|
|
quite a lot of things. Let's go through all them, starting from this page.
|
|
|
|
<h2>Splash page</h2>
|
|
|
|
The editor now has a splash page! Besides a fancy cover image with beautiful art, on the bottom
|
|
left of the page you'll be able to create a new custom pixel. You can also use the quickstart
|
|
menu to quickly select a preset or load an existing file. It was designed by <a href="https://twitter.com/skeddles">Skeddles</a> himself!
|

|
|
|
|
<strong>Pro tip: </strong> once you've created a new project, you can go back to the splash page
|
|
by clicking on <strong>Editor -> Splash page</strong>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Canvas resizing</h2>
|
|
|
|
We implemented canvas resizing! If you wanted to draw a t-rex but created a 4x4 canvas, we've got you covered!
|
|
You can now click on <strong>Edit -> Resize canvas</strong> to decrease the size of the project. Same goes if you
|
|
drew an ant on a 1024x1024 canvas, just go to <strong>Edit -> Resize canvas</strong> and decrease
|
|
the dimensions.

|
<h2>Sprite scaling</h2>
|
|
|
|
In addition to the <a href="https://www.lospec.com/pixel-art-scaler">Lospec Pixel Art Scaler</a>,
|
|
you can now take advantage of the editor's built-in scaling function. Just click on <strong>Edit -> Scale sprite</strong>
|
|
to scale up or down your work. With the nearest-neighbour algorithm you'll be able to scale sprites
|
|
in a pixel-perfect manner, while with bilinear interpolation it's possible to add (or remove, if you're scaling
|
|
down a sprite) antialiasing.

<h2>Line tool</h2>
|
|
|
|
Our contributor <a href="https://github.com/liamortiz">Liam</a> added a new line tool! Quality of
|
|
life improvement are planned for it, the rectangle and the rectangular selection tools.

<h2>Advanced mode: colour picker and palette block</h2>
|
|
|
|
If you're a proud user of the advanced mode, you'll be able to try out the new colour picker: it
|
|
supports 3 colour models, 6 colour harmonies and multiple ways to input data. Next to it,
|
|
you'll find the new palette block, which lets you arrange your colours however you want, add and
|
|
remove multiple colours at once. Changes made in the palette block will update the palette list
|
|
you've always been familiar with.

|
|
<li>Use <strong>View -> Pixel grid</strong> to show the pixel grid</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bunch of bugs, made the brush preview pixel perfect</li>
|
|
<li>Added <strong>Layer -> Duplicate</strong> to duplicate a layer</li>
|
|
<li>Quality of life development improvements by <a href="https://github.com/nkoder">Nkoder</a> and <a href="https://github.com/JulianWebb">Pongles</a></a></li>
|
|
<li>Canvas trimming to get rid of all the extra space you have in your sprite</li>
|
|
</ul>
