Export: metadata vector layer for precise layer bounding box output #11

Closed razcore-rad closed 2 years ago

razcore-rad commented 5 years ago

So the idea is to have a metadata vector layer, called say GDquestMeta or something like that, where the user would create rectangle shapes around assets that are to be exported. The problem is how to match the shapes with the layers to be exported.

At the time of this writing (19 dec. 2018) the Python API for working with vector layers is bare bones and there's no way in Krita to edit the name of the shapes.

Ideally the user would have a text field in the Krita UI for renaming vector shapes. This would solve the problem since then we can rename the shapes to have the same names as the layers to be exported by GDquest Art Tools. Further inquiry of Krita dev. team necessary.
