Hi there. Is there a way to select a layer, and then have Aseprite automatically generate frames for the rotations of that layer?

Here is an example from SpritePad, a Commodore C64 sprite designer application. In the attached image 1, the first frame is drawn. Then, there is an option to set the number of rotations you want (defaults values, but who needs anything outside of those, see attached image 2). And then - poof! - the applications generates each rotation as a separate frame.

Anything like that in Aseprite?

Regards,  
Flow TnT!

No sorry, there’s no such function in the base program. It’s entirely possible someone made a script to do this, but I couldn’t tell you if that’s the case.

You can check the script thread/section and see if there’s anything that does something similar.
