    Adding a boundary box for clip region?

    First, thanks for this tool. It works great for fine tuning the height differences in my PC and NPC images (e.g., properly sized firbolg vs. a halfling).

    Would it be possible to add a visible boundary box when setting the Clip Region? See the linked example below. I often find it challenging to clip close to the object's edge and not clip off parts of the image that extend beyond the clip region. Something like a visible clip region box would help tremendously. Thanks for your consideration!

    You know you don't need to set the clip region if the image doesn't have multiple characters/figures in it right?

    The clip region does not remove parts of the image. The clip region defines the height and width of the token. This region is used in combination with expected grid size and height to determine the size of the token. If your image doesn't have any extraneous bits like wings or a tail, then you don't need to set the clip region.

    [EDIT: the clip region clips the image, the measurement region sets the token size, see post below.]

    Thanks for the clarification! I assumed that it was used to get rid of any unused areas of the original image so the token can be better scaled in the available space. Looking back at the Developer Video, I can see now that it's generally not used. I'll try and create the metadata without it and see if there's any noticeable difference.

    Fantasy Grounds uses xml metadata files to predefine the scale, position, and clipping of images that are shown in the 3D Camera View Mode. You can use the same tool to predefined any images you want to use. Just place these in the same location as the original image file.

    Download for image metadata tool:

    Mac OS Version
    Linux Version

    I've suspended support for any extensions. It just isn't worth my time anymore to have to continually update them.
    Smiteworks has a developer relations problem (perceived or real) that needs to be fixed.

    To clarify the clarification, the measurement region is used as described to determine the size of the token. The clip region does, in fact, clip the rendered portion of the image. It had been a while since I looked at the implementation and I read it wrong.

    Is there an official support forum thread for this topic? I'm having some issues with "large" creature image sizes on screen.

    Nope, just start a new thread in the House of Healing.

    OK. Will do, I just didn't want to start a new one, or post here, if there was an existing thread elsewhere.

    I just pushed a new version that writes the version # and the dataversion to the root element.

    All newer XML definitions should now start with this:
    <root version="4.5" dataversion="20230911">
