I'm so thankful for this plugin guys! I was wondering if you could make the logo placement start from the left edge of the canvas, as client's have complained that the size of the logos is quite small, but when making them bigger, the logos reach out of the canvas and the plugin disables itself.

Also if you could customize the output files that would be AMAZING and would totally pay for it 🙌🏼

Could you be more specific? Ps how can the logos be too small when your logos can't be placed on the canvas. The complete canvas is about 577cm wide and high, it starts in the center, so that leaves 288.5cm for placing the logos. That's is huge!

Its better you start then with a logo of around 5-10 cm in width or height. Placement of the logo on the canvas does not matter as the Artboards are resized to the logo's width and height.

Customizing the output was/is on my list but can take a while. If you really want a solution with much more options, check Logo Package. It has all you want, but costs around $119 now. www.logopackage.com That extension was a bit why i expanded this open-source version with more options. Ive added new options, but they have not been merged yet with this repo. You can check my repo for more expanded functionality

Yes! I mean, starting from the center of the canvas, all logos will be automatically placed to the right, and for example, if I need to make the logo bigger (maybe 1500 wide) the next boxes will try to extend out of the canvas even if it's huge, and when that happens the plugin stops working.

Didn't know that package! Thank you very much 🙏🏼

what is 1500 in this case? What unit do you mean? Normally you dont export logo's that big for clients. Thats is very inconvenient to work with.

Why do clients want a logo that big, is it for a special use case?

@EdvardTxtr Ive made a new branch which has new features and quite some fixes. Ive also added option scale sizes for export of JPG and PNG. You can test the branch here. It needs manual installment. This is shown on the home page

I'd you don't understand a part. On the main page, I've added short gifs on how the new parts work. Remember when adding sizes,seperate them by short dash. Otherwise it won't work. I've tested sizes up to 4k in width. I had to adjust the script a bit in order for that to work. Somehow when using script, the logo needs to b some kind of base width. Otherwise it won't export in that big size. I have no idea why when using expprtdorscreen it does work. Basically the code we use is the same. But when the logo isn't big enough I get errors when the export size is to big. Therefor the script resizes the logo so it will work
