What stays editable
The work is kept as what you did, so a great deal stays editable that is usually lost the moment you let go of the mouse.
Text
A piece of text is words, a place and a size, so a typo is retyped, not erased.
Colours
A colour painted through a palette slot follows the slot, on every frame.
Transforms
Rotation, scale and offset are numbers. Set them to zero and the original returns exactly.
A look inside
What is in it
Draw
- Pencil, spray, eraser, fill, eyedropper, contour fill, rectangle, ellipse, line, curves and polygons, text, lasso and magic wand, with pen-tablet pressure.
- Pixel-perfect lines, symmetry, tiled mode and tile grids, snap to grid, guides and slices.
- Shapes stay editable. Dither patterns follow your palette. Rotate at any angle in pixel-art style, without the mush.
Layers and palettes
- Layers with blend modes, opacity, groups and clipping.
- Palettes in named slots, so one colour change repaints everywhere it was used. Ramps, presets, several palettes per file, and GPL, JASC, hex and ACT files in and out.
Animate
- Frames, named cycles with loop and ping-pong modes, linked cels, onion skin, tweens and playback at any speed.
- A timeline that opens over the canvas when you want it and tucks away when you do not.
- Cutout puppets: parts, joints and sockets, posed by hand and captured to a frame.
In and out
- Opens .lsprite, PNG, GIF, JPEG, BMP and Aseprite files as editable work.
- Exports PNG at 1x to 16x (indexed too), animated GIF, APNG and WebP, and sprite sheets with a JSON description game engines read.
- Reference images stay with the file.
Made to live in
- Nine themes, your own colour for every part of the interface, interface size and density up to 150%.
- Panels dock, tab, float and save as layouts. Fully rebindable keys and command search.
- Automatic recovery copies, so a crash does not cost you your work.
