Grid2Size for Aseprite
A downloadable Aseprite script
Grid2Size is a collection of two Lua scripts for Aseprite that either double or half the size of the sprite grid, most useful when used as a keyboard shortcut.
What they do:
Grid2Double.luadoubles the size of the grid;Grid2Half.luahalves it.- The scripts are provided separately to allow for two different keyboard shortcuts, to be defined by the user.
Grid2Half.luawill not divide the grid size if it's already at 1x1 pixels.- You must have a sprite selected for the script to work.
- It does not open a dialog window, to be as unintrusive as possible.

The wrong script seems to have been uploaded when this was updated this month.
That's absolutely correct, fixing this now.
There it goes, thank you for letting me know!
This is super handy. Changing the grid size in most editors is a pain.
doestn work on latest aseprite beta
I'm working on Aseprite v1.3-beta6-x64 and it works just fine—I actually use it constantly while making pixel art so I would have found a bug by now, I'm sure. I'll need more information about this if there's anything actually wrong with it. Please let me know if you can.
