Any chance of adding rounded brushes or pressure sensitivity in the future?

(+1)

Those are good ideas, I could definitely figure out rounded brushes. Pressure sensitivity might take a bit longer though.

I only took a small peak at the Aseprite API when making a touchscreen undo/redo button and I saw ya use some arrangement of pixels in your code to generate the patterns. 

I didn't look too deeply into either, but it all looks more advanced than what I understand atm. I can't (yet) image the amount of work that went into it. 


Thank ya so much for making this tool. It's helped a great deal with making variably shaded drawings for the Playdate.

I am glad you are finding the extension useful.
I took a closer look at the api/code and I am not sure how possible it is to have rounded brushes. The main issue is that custom brushes in aseprite are based on having a fixed image that gets tiled - if I make the image circular, the pattern becomes circular without affecting the actual brush shape. To see what I mean you can try drawing a circular pattern and then selecting the pattern and pressing CTRL+B to create a custom brush for it.
As far as pressure sensitivity goes, I don't really have any way to test that and I doubt the API provides any way to detect it.
Maybe in the future if the API becomes more advanced I can create a custom brush tool as opposed to a menu that creates custom brushes.

Ah, darn. I hadn't thought of the rounded brush tiling issue.
Such a shame that patterned brushes aren't supported better by the program. UnU

Anyway, as the extension is as it is now, I love it and it helps a ton. Thank you. c:
