Aseprite extension to open a reference image
Download the reference_viewer.aseprite-extension from itch.
OR
Create the extension from the repository. In Windows, open a PowerShell and run:
git clone https://github.com/enmarimo/aseprite_reference_viewer
cd aseprite_reference_viewer
scripts\create_extension.ps1
It will create the extension inside build\ folder.
In Aseprite open the Preferences dialog window by clicking on Edit > Preferences... in the top bar menu.
Then, in the Extensions tab click on the Add Extension button and find the reference_viewer.aseprite-extension downloaded before.
To open the Reference Viewer click on the View > Reference Viewer menu.
The Reference Viewer dialog window will open. The window can be resized and moved. Then click Select File to open an image (aseprite will warn you about the script accessing an external image).
With an image opened, it is possible to:
- zoom in and out using the slider or the mouse wheel.
- click on the Fit button to fit the image into the dialog window.
- move the image by dragging it.
Any suggestions and comments are welcome, but keep in mind this project is mostly a hobby and I don't guarantee any kind of support or response.
If you want to expand/improve this project feel free to fork the repository or create a new one. For now I don't plan on accepting pull requests as I want to keep this as a personal project and I would prefer to avoid organizing/maintaining other people's code (sorry for the inconvenience).
