New Tool: Ren'Py Layout Tool by Wendy-Nam - Instantly Preview and Place Images in Ren'Py!

https://github.com/Wendy-Nam/RenPy-LayoutTool/tree/main

Load new images directly into your current scene as overlays, making it easy to visualize and adjust their positions without leaving the game.

🔑 Key Feature: Open the tool from anywhere in your game by pressing L!

Note: This tool is for previewing purposes only. It doesn't add images directly to the code but helps you assess the placement and suitability of multiple assets before finalizing your scene.

Key Features:

Drag-and-drop images onto your scene

Real-time position tracking

Supports Ren'Py image definitions and file paths

Light/dark bg filter toggle for easy viewing

Quick image removal with a trash bin

Can be used for fast UI, sprite, or background prototyping.
