Greetings everyone! We have another Pixelorama update for you! Today we are releasing version 1.2.2 to the world, and with it we bring a highly requested feature, a new dedicated gradient tool! Not only that, but you can now also export Pixelorama projects as Aseprite files, instead of just being able to import them.
We also fixed a quite serious bug, which made keyframe IDs conflicting with already existing keyframes when loading a pxo file. If you load a pxo file that has keyframes, you will unfortunately have to re-create them in order for it to work correctly, otherwise when you try to select, move, delete etc a keyframe, other keyframes will also receive the same operation, due to ID conflicts. Moreover, we re-wrote some of the code of the layer effect system to massively improve the performance of stacked effects.
Full changelog of version 1.2.2:
Added
Implemented a new gradient tool. #1591
It is now possible to export projects as Aseprite files. #1603
You can now adjust the time taken by frames in a tag without disturbing their relative duration ratio. #1312
Changed
Integer zoom now zooms exponentially, just like the normal zoom. #1594
Fixed
Fixed keyframe IDs conflicting with already existing keyframes when loading pxo files and adding new keyframes on them. Note: existing keyframes in saved pxo files need to be re-created once.
Massively improved performance of stacked layer effects. #1591
Fixed cel button preview acting like the cel is still linked, even if it got unlinked.
Happy painting, and keep pixelating your dreams! 🎨✨
