Hi, Hope you are doing well. I am quite new to godot and I am trying to use your plugin. However I have some issues on start. I am using godot 4.2.1 stable on macOS with sprite wizard 7.4.0.

When trying to setup the plugin and add the path to 'Editor > Editor Settings > Aseprite > General > Command Path' it seems my path is not being read. the path I am currently using is: 'Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Aseprite/Aseprite.app/Contents/MacOS/aseprite' (I use aspire from steam).

However I have also tried Library/Application\ Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Aseprite/Aseprite.app/Contents/MacOS/aseprite

And Library/Application' 'Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Aseprite/Aseprite.app/Contents/MacOS/aseprite

(also tried to put whole path in double quotes/single quotes etc.) When I run this path from terminal I will get aseprite opened, despite that the path doesn't work.

I was playing around with some other settings and this error popped up (changing 'layers' option):

["sh: Library/Application\ Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Aseprite/Aseprite.app/Contents/MacOS/aseprite: No such file or directory\n"]

seems to me that the code underneath is escaping the escape character, same when I put the path in single quotes it will add '\'. Am I doing something wrong or maybe is there a way to workaround this?

I just copied the files to /Applications/Aseprite.app/Contents/MacOS/aseprite and it's working. But I am leaving the issue opened if you wan't to correct this :)

Hello @DawidGaleziewski . I'm happy you were able to fix your issue.

From your comment you say you were using this path: Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Aseprite/Aseprite.app/Contents/MacOS/aseprite. Given you repeated it a few times I assume there are no typos in it.

Escaping the space character is expected behaviour, otherwise it would be read as two paths. The first thing I noticed is that your path is missing the initial /. If that's really the case, this is likely the reason why it was not working in the first place. By not including the initial / the path will be resolved as relative to Godot instead of absolute from the root.

I just copied the files to /Applications/Aseprite.app/Contents/MacOS/aseprite and it's working.

This is good to know. If this is the case even for steam installed apps I reckon I can set this one as default for MacOS, which would reduce the friction. Cheers.
