I was thinking... wouldn't it be handy to give a name to all your sprites in the sprite manager? Because if I'm animating I can't see always very clearly the difference between pictures... So if I could just give it a name, or a popup text, with its name. it would be of great help.
Maybee an idea for the new update of AGS?
I don't see why not - although, if you have a lot of sprites in your game, going through and naming them could be quite a chore.
Maybe the default name for a sprite soucl be the imported filename (plus a number if importing a "tube")
Good idea - I'll bear that in mind.
Could you make sure the option to NOT name the sprites is still there, so they could remain numbered by default? I can only assume you intend on doing that anyway, but just want to make sure ;D
How about naming view numbers as well?
View 1 - "Name"
keeping the number there of course but having a description, simliar to the room descriptions, where it doesn't actually affect the room.
What's up with the Pumaman thing? Is there a joke behind that? I imagine there is...did I miss a thread somewhere?

How about this.
A checkbox for Always Import My Sprites With FileName
A checkbox for Never Import My Sprites With FileName
A checkbox I Want To Name Them Myself
I dont know if its possible, but it would definatley help me alot!
Hi, I was reading the thread and I thought I'd pop in now and remind you that, until the feature kicks in (by the way, I second that feature!), there's a very good Script Editor at http://koti.mbnet.fi/dima/scripteditor/
, which has a nifty option called "Game Memo", where you can store all sorts of memo, including view/sprite content.
well this feature is nice but I have another suggestion for it:
when you click on the checkbox for making this feture available then you get another window with all the other checkboxes:
A checkbox for Always Import My Sprites With FileName
A checkbox for Never Import My Sprites With FileName
A checkbox I Want To Name Them Myself
then in the general menu you will in the main menu you will not have all sorts of checkboxes to make it (the main menu nice for the eye to see :o)
