eritbh / comment-face-generator

An Electron application to generate spritesheets and CSS for Reddit comment faces, partly an excuse to learn Electron and partly because the /r/anime mods are lazy.

comment-face-generator's Issues

Filesize calculation

This would be super useful but might also be hard since you'd have to compress everything first and by then it's not very useful.

Async

Especially for image operations, async really needs to be a thing.

Project settings for # or /, default/broken face, etc

The "Project Settings" pane should be populated with options that allow you to set what format ([](#face) or [](/face)) to use, as well as some other generator options for the output CSS.

Deleting spritesheets only ever deletes the last one

Don't regenerate stylesheet output unless things have changed

This will involve adding properties to the project that will store the last output, and operations that modify the output should reset this. If the old output is present, the output tab should display that; otherwise, it will regenerate it.

Apply actions to selected faces

Implement a checkbox system that allows you to perform actions in bulk. See: Toolbox's queue tools setup.

"Save" menu item always asks for file location

Apparently that's not being stored correctly.

Ability to export full code and images for all spritesheets.

This should include the base code to make the faces themselves work, as in #4.

Scrap spritesheet.defaultWidth/defaultHeight

When resizing all faces, eliminate this variable in the process. At output generation time, iterate through the faces and use the arithmetic mode of each respective dimension as the default.

The current behavior can result in some weird generations if you have faces that are different.

Generate spritesheets from bottom up; use positive background-position values

Currently, the spritesheet is generated from the top to the bottom, and the background-position value of each face is negative, growing smaller as the faces go down the list. We should invert this so the first spritesheet is at the bottom, that way the CSS values can all be positive, starting at the height of the first face.

Might actually be a good idea to have a project setting for this once that gets going.

Include comment face global code in generated spritesheet

Currently, the base code for spritesheets (display:inline-block and the other stuff for text on the face) is not included in the spritesheet. That should be included to make things easier.

Should also be a project setting (or multiple) to modify how this is generated - enable/disable text, etc

Scroll areas are sized differently if they overflow or not

Wen not overflowing, the scroll areas shrink a bit. See change 6719d6e

Ability to edit face names

.-.

More image sizing options

• Set individual image to spritesheet default dimensions
• Reset image to initial dimensions (dimensions from when updated)
• Fit image to width/height
