@jonteguy 2 года назад

@@pixelup-art The distance from B and O is pretty big in comparison to the right-side he was talking about, it's also angled which makes it more annoying. It's definitely doable but for me I'd rather change most of the keybinds to the numpad.

What i like to do is use the shading mode with the spray tool. Combine that with the tiled mode and you've got pixel art textures/tiles in no time.

It's always fun watching right handed people enjoy tech and devices laid out in convenience. I get to imagine for a moment what it must be like to not have to constantly switch things around/reach across something awkwardly/ put what ever was in my left hand down so I can reach over for the keyboard shortcuts before picking it back up again. Yes I will die mad on this hill, why do you ask? Unrelated complaining aside. Thanks for the tips and videos, tremendously useful stuff across this whole channel.

@polter5195 3 года назад

Nice crash course! I always wondered how you managed to switch the brush size so quickly! Really hope that gets added to Aseprite as an official feature. Another option is to just hover the size box and use the scroll wheel on your mouse, but it'd still be nice to hold down a key and move your mouse.

@rhymewave6777 Год назад

Nice, simple, effective presentation. I'm going down the rabbithole and as Bill Withers sang ' Before you put your plan into operation, you gotta take it all in and check it all out'. Your videos are a large part of that :)

@deathnutz 3 года назад

Wow man. Thank you so much for making this. I was surprised to see you using the keyboard over the tablet shortcuts. It makes total sense. I was hoping to see you show everything you did, including how you change brush size... I hope it becomes standard as well.

@Holdsworthands 3 года назад

really helpful, ive been using aseprite every day for 2 years now, lots of hours but i still found somethings useful here, i will try to avoid the pixelperfect feature from now on. This is the best program ive ever used and i keep finding new things, for me it is almost perfect, i have just some really minor things but they told me they will improve them in the near future, like exporting animations in some video format, improving the text tool and adding the resize thing like you have (although when they introduced the pen pressure i didnt find myself resizing too much since i have a lot of sizes with just pen pressure but it would be nice to have)

you can also move frames between layers by holding it with right click button, moving it where you want it and than release the click and a small window will appear and you click move :) thats how i do it, its one more click but its easyer for me than going close to the monitor to find the yello border of the frame

Many thanks and I surely will be back for your other videos
