I am happy to work on some new stuff if there is a need for it. If there are any other useful tools you guys would like to see me build, be it for art or anything else, please let me know.

The advanced tool will have all of the features you guys are asking for without sacrificing the simplicity of this one.įeel free to drop any other suggestions you guys have. I am thinking I may create an advanced grid tool and keep this one as is. Shouldn’t be a problem but my worry is that if I start adding too many features like this, the tool will stop being the basic and simple tool it is now. When you enable it, the grid overlays the image and makes it easier for you. The calculation divides the entire 3D world up into a grid of equally sized square cells, with possible size per cell ranging from 0.25m up to 100m, depending on the size of the project area. I have been reading over the other suggestions such as being able to set a number of rows and making the tool do the math with the scale. By using the Show Grid command, you can enable and disable displaying the grid. It uses a 2-dimensional grid for calculation, data storage and visualization. Up from 200px as this was another suggestion. I have also updated the grid scale to up to 300px.
#Grid overlay update#
If you enter a value with a decimal place, it will update once you hit enter or just move out of the input and it will apply to the image right away. I know some of you wanted to go below 1 or just wanted 1.5. Hey guys, I have just updated the tool to support decimal places in the grid thickness. I will keep it in mind and if it is something more people want, I can consider adding it. Sure, it will mean you get a perfect grid from top to bottom and left to right, something that is hard with a square grid due to aspect ratios not always being perfect multiples but this feels like a feature that would make the tool far more difficult to configure. A grid is made of squares, if you have a grid of 5px high and 3px wide, it will mean the grid is wonky and will make it more difficult to render cleanly.

This is possible but I am not sure this would be much good. I have seen the suggestion of wanting the grid width and height being something you can configure. The new field will make this much easier. This should solve the issues some of you are having to try to get the grid to line up perfectly as the slider did not allow perfectly precise values. I have removed the scale slider and instead, this is now an input that you can modify to 1 decimal place e.g. I have just pushed another update for this tool.
