Forgive me for making this inquiry through this medium, but I did not want to open a thread for a trifle.
In the original NST, I could export the attributes of my layout by doing the following:
But NEXXT, I can't find anything similar that only exports the hexadecimal data of the attributes, is there any way to perform this action?
Hi!
There was a bug in one of the previous versions where these actions you're looking for didn't perform as intended.
This may be the source of your troubles.
This has since been fixed, but i don't remember in which version, so be sure to download the latest.
In either case, you'll find the corresponding action under File > Canvas (.nam or .map) > Save screen as ASM ( or > Save screen as C header).
The options to toggle saving nametable data and attribute table data on and off is in the + options submenu, just below.
I always keep my version of NEXXT up to date and I had already tried what you mention, but when I set up the file to export that data, the resulting file only contains this:
n01:
or
const unsigned char n01[0]={ };
Would it be possible to consider in the future a function to be able to copy this information to the clipboard, to make it more accessible?
That does seem like a bug. I'm not able to reproduce it, unfortunately.
If you provide the session file, i can have a go at solving the mystery.
In case you prefer to do it in DM:s, my discord ID is FrankenGraphics#3272
It's certainly possible to have a look at expanding some clipboard actions in that regard. I can't say when that might happen, but it's already an item on my todo list. :)
It's strange, I can't reproduce the error, both the day I reported it and today when I sent the message it failed, moreover, before replying this morning I re-downloaded the application to make sure and even though I restarted the program a couple of times, configuring it to export only the attributes, the output file only contained what I mentioned. I really don't know what's going on.
