Release id #122077 : Pixcen
Hi all!
I'm opening this forum for Pixcen. Please post your feature requests and bug reports here if possible to keep the comment section clean(er).
As of this weekend (2013/10/12) I have hopefully fixed a crash (as reported by Dr.Science & Bamse), changed some menu items and implemented mirror/flip, shift and rotate on selected areas. To be uploaded. |

Shine: I've had a similar idea that by holding some key the color distribution in the screen and color RAM is displayed instead of the image. Another variant would be to show the color density (number of used colors) per cell as you want.
For color distribution each cell could show a grid with the colors in RAM. For color density each cell could show a number or a shade from black to white, no color used or all colors used. |

Maybe following is a bug.
If i copy & paste an (source) area to an other (target) area, which is (randomly) filled with colors then some target colors disappear (filled with black).
This is reproducable.
To avoid this, i use an new instance from Pixcen with a clear background as buffer.
Is there a chance to change this?
EDIT: It would be very nice, if it doesn't matter, if the target area is "used" by other pixels. |

Thanks for this wonderful tool CRT, simply awesome!
I'm unsure if the following is possible, but something that I haven't seen in many editors (are there any?) is the ability to draw sprites in expanded (X/Y) mode in hires or M/C.
(What I have been doing is the obvious, painting a sprite logo in unexpanded mode, then expanding them and fixing size issues.)
cheers,

Shine: It's somewhat a bug. I think it was easy to fix but I will let you decide if this version helps.

Ksubi: Thanks! I'm glad you enjoy it. I will add the X/Y expanded mode to the TODO/tickets. |

Yes, the copy & paste bug is eliminated! :)
Thanks for fast debugging! ;) |

I would like to have a new feature:
If i switch to "Unrestricted Mode", the "Cell" window gets disabled.
But it would be better (imho), the "Cell" window gets expanded to all 16 colors.
Then i can see, if i browse over the cells with the mouse which and how many colors are used. |

And something more is very important for me:
I need a "Line Function". It's very hard (imho) to make lines with copy and paste 'little lines'.
The line function must be adjustable before setting it to the picture. |

Shine:
The color density option you want can most likely be achieved by issue 22, once implemented.
The drawing tools (issue 16) is long overdue: Fill exist but lines, arc/circles and other shapes should be good. Also, different forms of pens, brushes for dithering, etc. The editor should have a new tool window and some cursors. This would lift Pixcen to a slightly higher level editor.

I added a new download link, pixcen64.zip. It's no more C64 than the other but it's 64 a bit executable. All fairly recent Windows computers are 64 bit. 64 bit executables run a bit faster for some operations.
If you are unsure, conservative or happy with the normal version, no need to change.
I have been insanely busy at work the last month and I do have to code some demo too.. But, the Pixcen source already got couple of accumulated fixes/improvements and I will throw in line-draw next. Perhaps tonight. |

For you who don't build from source (probably most of you :-). I decided to push the couple of changes that have been sitting around for some time. Shines copy/paste bug and Jailbirds grid request changes are official.
r54
-Fixed for color overflow issues with paste.
-Turn pixel grid or cell grid on and off individually (issue 19).
-Re-worked grid drawing (optimized) and prepared for shapes. |
