News/release from Sylus101 (http://forum.palib.info/index.php?topic=5230.0)
Just so it's clear and the purpose of the app isn't in question (as I think it might be) this is intended to be a developers helper in designing/modifying sprites, particularly for use with PALib, but since there is a binary export now I'm gathering they could be used with any dev platform (not like there are many others...).
This is NOT meant to be a stand-alone a program where you make neat-o animations.
Welcome to the v0.93.1a release of Pixelman. No longer the first to introduce the Sprite Testing Arena I've been working on for the last few months, but that new feature still bears mentioning.
I'm really really hoping to have as many people as possible to check this new feature out. All instructions are in the Readme included.
*Added Hflip and Vflip Tools.
*Note on Gridshift - Shifting past one edge of the grid will wrap around. This was fixed in this release from v93.0c
*Note on Rotation - Rectangular sprites really won't rotate correctly at 90 degrees so instead, they'll rotate a full 180. This was fixed in this release from v.93.0c
*Note on Zoom - Currently all other tools are disabled while zoomed. Use D-Pad to move around the viewing box. Stylus still draws but as I'm typing this I realize you'll not be able to switch colors. That will be remedied shortly. New in this release.
