Great tool! It worked wonders in a task where I needed to swap 4 colors at once. They were sheets so it was easier not having to deal with layers. Is there a way to swap colors from multiple sheet files at once? Thank you for the wonderful tool you created.

Ayeeee thank you so much for your kind words! OOO yes being able to have it color swap over all open files would be great actually. Currently it does the current file but i can def take a look at adding support for multiple files :) Ill add this functionality to a feature request for the next update.

A little workaround to do this currently would be to add each of your sheets to a new layer and then export as it can work though multiple layers at a time. This should work best if your sheets are the same size ofcourse but when I implement multiple files they could be diffrent for sure.

Thank you again for your support on my tools and I very happy to see your comment on this!

Edit:

I've created a feature request for multifile support which would end up being slated for Color Swap v1.2.0 once implemented :D Any progress can be tracked over on the issues/feature request page:

Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately, for the project I'm working on, each refsheet is a different size. So what I did was use the Color Swap with a saved preset (I love that this exists!!), opened each sheet, swapped the colors with a single click and saved. It was also helpful in another file where I needed to swap colors in multiple frames! Definitely a great tool, thanks again for creating it.

Is it possible to set the color swap to a keyboard shortcut? That would be insane, like Shift+1, Shift+2 depending on the preset.

Oh absolutely! Your quite welcome! Ah yes that does make sense now and why you asked about it xD Sounds like your using it as intended with the color sets! One of the main ideas was to have a way to be able to come back to a previously created color set, espcially when your likely to use it again in the future :)


I could def look in to adding additional hotkeys, we're you thinking having a button for each swap column? Or perhaps swapping between diffrent color sets all together? Both def could be help full ha

Some really good ideas actually! Ill make sure to get these on the feature request tracker so I can update you on progress when I start implementing them :) (See below edit)


Thank you again for all the praise! This project took alot of time to get working just right so i def appreciate seeing that its being so helpful!

Edit:

I've created an feature request for the hotkey additions and got some initial thoughts out over on the issues / feature request page:

https://github.com/CarbsCode/CarbsAsepriteExtensions/issues/42

I've added both feature requests to the issues / feature request page, slated for update v1.2.0! You can see all current issues / feature requests for this mile stone here:

Yeah, one hotkey for each color swap column! That would be nice. Also, for some reason, when I click the "minimize" checkbox, sometimes it gets unchecked by itself but it do not expand the window. I have to click it twice (check and uncheck again). Just something I noticed, not sure if its my computer or some weird behavior of the plugin.

I'm not very familiar with Github, but thanks for considering this update!
