Removed the Unused and Alpha flags from the checkbox list. Adjusted the labels to not get text wrapped, and tidied some other elements. Made the Frame, Face, Slice, and Mipmap number boxes in the Image tab set to ReadOnly if the value does not go over 1 (in this case, 0 = 1 as the starting point), this is to make it easier to see if the VTF has any more than one of any of these values at a glance instead of needing to attempt to change the values (they cannot be changed if it does not go over one as well, so this does not remove functionality)
… has tons more functionality than the bar Other changes that were not mentioned in the previous push. The alpha of the image is instead replaced by a label in the image tab with the text of what alpha the image is using, such as "Eight Bit Alpha".
…, and added a confirm dialog when using the Close button
…nd so I decided to put the external dlls into the project and change the paths Note that this is strictly for 64 bit systems and will likely need a 32 bit dll for building 32 bit.
…g a download from other sites if the original vtfedit reloaded wasn't already downloaded
… extremely low values
…, and added a pragma to disable an ignorable warning
…ne with all the changes for now and have tested everything I can think of

very nais also the linux pull was just a test for now, i'll have to mess with it more before it comes to the main branch |

Here's the new images for the channels, not too sure about them because of the black outline, but it seemed necessary or they could be hard to look at when just the raw color. If you have better ideas for any of the icons, I'm open to changing them to whatever. https://i.imgur.com/ycEOGmS.png (changed the tiling icon after the initial image) |

hey sorry about the wait, looks good, would you be able to compile the build with the new icons for me so i can add it to the gamebanana page? |
The main change is to replace the old tool bar with a tool bar strip, adding a lot more functionality and easier to change.
Other changes include fixing the label texts, allowing the right-click context menu for a vtf to be outside of the image bounds, adding a close button to close the current loaded file, adding some window size minimums because they didn't have one in the first place, removing the alpha flags from the checkbox list as they cannot be changed anyways and instead they have a label indicating the vtf's alpha (I'm thinking of doing the same for the environment map flag as well because it's the same conditions as the alpha, but unsure where to put this), and changing the "frame, face, slice, mipmap" numbered box to only be adjustable when the vtf has more than one of any of these (they could not be adjusted regardless if the vtf didn't already have more than one, this would just make it a bit easier to know if the vtf does have more than any of these).
I have also decided to just include the third party dlls into the project so that they can be copied into the Build folder and remove the "Build Failed" error that was caused by the post build copy command. (I wanted this anyways to also be able to use the local debugger, as vtfedit relies on the other dlls to function)
Also please note that this will cause merging conflicts with the linux pull that I saw. Unsure what needs to be done to make them completely compatible but I hope I could get this pull added in.
Here's an image of how the main window looks now, if you want to make your decision to merge based on that.
