Ken, the two new '
ImageAnimator' tools 'Make_Unique' and 'Clone' should only have appeared in the View > ImageAnimator sub-menu as they are not that often used - the toolbar buttons were a result of a typo in my code
This is the updated version ..13b...http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=293677#p293677 -
WOW!
good work
-
tig,
fantastic ruby !
Only I can't seem to find the "make unique button"
In stead I see two times : set folder from selected images to Nil ?greetings,

This version also includes 'ImageTrimmer' - a tool to trim around transparent areas in a .png Image and make a new Component - useful to trim around 'cardboard' cutout people from photos etc... see here for more details http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=294815#p294815 -
Here's an update http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=293677#p293677
The 'ImageTrimmer' now has an option to simplify the outline and a new separate tool to do this post processing too. -
IMPORTANT NOTICE!
There has been a lone report of these tools not working - with a '.jar' file 'opening' rather than 'running'!
Many of these tools use small Java '.jar' executable files that do specific tasks like zip/unzip and image manipulation.I have found that I can reproduce this weirdness IF I let a 'zip/unzip' application like AlZip or WinRar 'poach' the '.jar' file-type as one that it will open. If so then when Ruby tries to 'open' a '.jar' file instead of it 'executing' in Java [like it should], it 'opens' in the decompression application...
The solution = look at your WinRar etc settings and ensure '.jar' is NOT one of its file-types for opening...

The Image and Material class extended methods will now only load if not already defined by SUp itself [==future-proofing since there's no medium-term hope of them doing this themselves?]. -

The 'aliases' have be slightly recast to avoid removing the new methods. -

The ImageTrimmer tool has an added option to 'flatten' the new materia's texture PNG [i.e. remove its transparency] so that it will then receive shadows.
Note that there is also a new jar FlattenPNG.jar that is used to do this. -
