ASEprite ProTips

A #ProTips Twitter for #ASEprite! Follow along for little hints for our (my) favourite #pixelart editor which you may or may not already know, but that could save you a lot of time! ⭐️ Have a tip or know a trick I have not posted? DM it to me, and I will try to include it! :D

⏱Protip recent as of ASEprite v1.3.7-x64! 📷Want more "hidden" Timeline options? Here are a few more for you! nitter.gq/ASE_ProTips/status/125… 🔻

⏺Not satisfied with your Timeline playback options? Feels too basic?⏸ 👁There is more to it than meets the eye! 👁 Adjust playback speed⏩, looping🔁, and Tag effects🔖 independently of Frame timing! 🖱Just Right-Click on the ▶Play button above the Timeline and check it out~

If you are following this account you probably already have a copy of ASEprite, but just in case you want to tell a friend, now is your chance to get it for less!~ 💰🌠

🛠The option to remove or restore the dividing lines is near the bottom in the GENERAL tab of the PREFERENCES PANE under EDIT!🎨 It can seem weird at first, but give it a try for a little while and see how it feels once you are used to it!~ Tip current to ASEprite v1.3-rc6-x64.

😕Are you sick of being TOTALLY COMFORTABLE with how you pick colours in #ASEprite?😴 Try adding or removing the lines between your colour swatches to see palettes in a REMARKABLY DIFFERENT WAY!🤯 Add the lines for a pure view of each colour! Remove them for a contrastier feel!

Indeed, although it only works if [Auto Select Layer] is toggled ON at the top of the Workspace~ (If it breaks, that is how to fix it!) You can do it by CTRL-LMB clicking the same way too, which brings you to the layer of the upper-most visible pixel! 💡Thank you for the tip!😀

O wow! Thank you, you guys! I will have to figure out some way to celebrate sometime soon~ <3 I am glad so many of you have found these little tips so useful, and hopefully I will get back to updating again soon! :D Keep on pixellin'~

What an incredible service this is! Thank you! Even without using the automatic gradient fill, it is such a boon to be able just to *see* different dithering patterns! Thank you for sharing this, and also for the quick explanation on how to install it! 💖✨

RIGHT??

The interpreter also supports fairly complex equations! Besides addition (+), subtraction (-), multiplication (*), and division ( / ), you can also use parenthetical ( ( ) ) and exponential (𝚎 + #-of-zeroes) notation! Try it out~ Calculate the height and width OF YOUR DREAMS✨

Tip current to ASEprite v. 1.3-beta16-x64. Example art by me, @windfallapples! (Normally my stuff is way better though I swear ;0; <3)

❔ But what does that mean exactly? 💻⚡It means you can enter RAW CALCULATIONS and ASE will WORK THEM OUT MATHEMAGICALLY!💡🧙‍♂️ Want to make the Canvas eleven pixels narrower? Type "-𝟷𝟷" AFTER the width value! Want it exactly 2⁶ pixels tall? Type "𝟸^𝟼" AS the current height!

↔Tired of doing math in your head when you are resizing your Canvas or Sprite? ↕Sick of dragging edges to get the right size and shape? It turns out you are covered! 🌟#ASEprite can INTERPRET EQUATIONS IN THE INPUT FIELDS!⌨ HA HA WHAT HAS THIS ALWAYS BEEN THERE?? >:0 #protip
