For Terrains, a more visually-friendly, more detailed, zoomable grid view #3851
gvivster posted onGitHub
There are two things I use constantly in Tiled:
- Expanded RPGMaker tilesets, which, although they are are a non-ideal experience visually, are a necessary step to be able to use RPGMaker layouts within Tiled.
- Terrain sets, which - although they reduce the pain point of using expanded tilesets - are also difficult visually. Even with preview tiles selected, I can only see a skinny column of one tiny tile each.
(This leaves me desperately wishing to simply be able to use RPGMaker's tileset layouts within Tiled because of their clean straightforward view of all of the tileset's contents, but I know would take MAJOR refactoring you probably don't want to do - so here's an alternative.)
At the end of the day, what I really want is simply to be able to LOOK at my terrains in the sidebar and SEE a nice clean representation of each one, no matter what specific tiles are actually getting used. I just want to be able to simply and cleanly see all the relevant previews at once in the entire set, like you can in RPGMaker.
If it was a zoomable grid view, that would probably be perfect. (thank you to eishiya for mentioning that!)
(This is a little bit of an accessibility ask for me, as I have a condition that sometimes affects my visual working memory - basically, if I can only see a tiny part of a long list of graphics at once, it's incredibly hard for me to keep them straight and work with them. This change would have a direct positive impact on me every single time I use Tiled.)
