Extras Manager Extension

Extras Manager Extension (Beta)

Access the extras folder from within Stencyl.

It's late and I need to go to school early, so I'll update this thread properly later.

Screenshots: See attachments.

Notes:
- Make sure to go to the Extension Options page to set your image/text editors.
- Rename button doesn't do anything yet.
- No drag and drop yet.
- Lots of the GUI is really ugly right now.

Get it

- Use the following repository: http://www.polydes.com/repo

Version History

4/3/14 - Initial Beta Release
12/6/14 - Added some DnD, improved UI, everything keeps updated with the filesystem

Updated with a small change. Apparently using filenames that begin with a . was causing issues on Macs, so I changed how the img/txt templates are stored.

If you used the previous version, it's fine to delete the .templates folder from your extras directory.

Is this still being developed?

I've updated this extension.
- The UI is much cleaner. I've adapted the dark tree from my other extensions for this one.
- Renaming files works now.
- Everything should refresh now to keep current with the filesystem.
- If you use any of my other extensions, most of them store data in the extras folder. You can hide those folders from showing up in this extension by downloading the latest version of each of them.
- Files can be dragged in from the desktop/file browser, and within the extension, files can also be dragged around in the tree to the left. Dragging files in the main content area will arrive later.

This gives an error every time i open a game:

Looks great though, i could be really usfull to me, especially with the great new image blocks.

Just installed it.

Found a bug, when I enable this extension,
no blocks appear in the palette in the extension tab

Not happening for me. Logs?

Here.

Sorry for posting on a old thread but which folder do you place the java file " Engine Extensions " or " Extensions " ?

It goes in the "extensions" folder.

Or you can grab the latest Stencyl build, go to "Extensions > Get Extensions", add the repository "http://www.polydes.com/repo", and install the extension from there.

It goes in the "extensions" folder.

Thanks Justin !

What were you doing at the time

Clicking on the selected file ( extra) and after that  renaming a new folder. I received this error message twice, one for each action.

Okay , everything is working now, small bugs but everything seems to be going fine. Also just want to say this is one of my favriote extensions ever !! Super helpful !! Also suggestion : user should be able to move folder from different locations on their computer to the " extras" folder in this extension.
