Custom offsets for image tiles (feature request)

[alaa-eddine]

Hi,

Image collection tilesets is an excellent feature, I use it to group ornaments, unclassified tiles, or images that don't fit in a standard tileset.
But there is one lacking feature that could make it even better : adding a drawing offset per image, or support percentage drawing offset in the image collection (but this last one is a breaking change)

Why ?
One advantage of image collection tileset is that we can put images of different sizes in it.
Now let's say that we want an image collection with a centered drawing offset for all images ; this is not possible if we use images of different sizes. so the solution would be to support a per image offset which override the global one, or to use the global offset as a percentage and not an integer.

You might say that I just have to put images with same size in each tileset, but in this case, I don't see the interest of image collection, I can just group them and use them as a standard tileset.

Example :
I have here an image collection tileset with a well and a door image, the well image it about 3 times larger than the door. the draw offset is set so the anchor is centered for the well image, see below :

and now, the anchor for the door image

It seems I missed this issue or it got buried somewhere, sorry about that.

I agree this would be a very useful feature and I hope to eventually get around to it. Maybe it's something to plan for Tiled 1.3.

I'm closing this issue, since it is a duplicate of #871.
