A downloadable ren'py tool

Overview

Is editing UI a hassle where you have to edit the number in the editor, wait 1-2 seconds for the screen to reload and then try again to get those buttons (or any other displayable) right there in the correct placement?

I agree. So I made an extension for that exact purpose. For now, it's only moving renpy Displayables but I intend to add more properties soon enough.

Usage

With the press of E you enter into the edit mode. Then you press H for help and guidance for all the other keys and what they do.

An example is available as a video here:

Installation

Copy the renpy-guiManipulate.rpe file to your project's game folder. It then just works.

Don't worry about it's inclusion when building. It adds itself to the exclusion list.
