Wha, that's pretty epic, great work!

[kindermoumoute]

That's look very nice. 

Feature request :
Save tileIt's project into an appvar to reuse it later.
Use different way to export project or tile (in a string, directly in an appvar,...).
Grayscale.

[Sorunome]

Or maybe also exporting directly into a program, that would be cool!

[shmibs]

it is going to save tilesets and tilemaps, separately, into appvars and export them as hex strings into programs, and a single tile can be exported to a string. anywhozle, here's a new screenie!

You rock man, it's awesome, keep up the good work and make this program greater then heaven

[Sorunome]

That is just FAAAAAAAR to awesome!

[shmibs]

it's still in a very incomplete state, but here's an update with a quick demo =)
saving and loading appvars works now, although somewhere in that an extra tile is being added to the tileset. anyways, i haven't updated the export page, so just know that the top two options are correct and that the two below them are load tileset and load map respectively =).
if you find any glitches (and i'm sure there are plenty) let me know =)

I've been playing around with this, and I really like the layout! A couple suggestions:

• Using CLEAR to close the current context (EXPORT menu, map editor, tile editor, whatever) instead of immediately quitting the program (unless you're already on the title screen)
• Renaming EXPORT to something else (like FILE), since it's not entirely for exporting
• Renaming "SET TO PRGM" and "MAP TO PRGM" to something like "LOAD SET" and "LOAD MAP," since they're not programs and I was confused what you meant by "SET TO"/"MAP TO" when I first saw those options
• Changing "TILE TO STR0" to an action that saves the tile to the recall queue (basically so I can do 2nd+[RCL] in the program editor to "paste" it in—just a personal preference)

[shmibs]

the "set to prgrm" and "map to prgrm" options are only named that because i haven't changed them yet. they were going to be the options for exporting to hex strings in programs
and having clear go back to the info screen shouldn't be too bad.
placing it in the recall queue would be useful indeed. how would i go about doing that?

[Deep Thought]

The last entry is always stored in prgm# (# being the hash character, 0x23). You can store to it with something like this:

"prgm"[2300]→Str0 . E23 is the hash character
"[0123456789ABCDEF]"[]→Str1 . the brackets suppress the null byte, saving you one byte
Copy(Str1,GetCalc(Str0,18),18)

[shmibs]

cool =D
EDIT: there are programs # and !, right? what does the OS use ! for?

[TheMachine02]

great ! good work ! 

[shmibs]

updates! yay!

added:
resizing tileset
export to entry rather than string
animations
undo in map edit mode

fixed:
worked out every bug (that i'm aware of)
cleaned up the gui a bit (although the title on the file tab still says export. ).
repaired checks in loading files
clear returns to main screen from tabs

try it out and see if you can find any bugs i missed!

[shmibs]

update!
draw functions!
the set editor now does all the usual things. hotkeys are the numpad (4 shifts left, 8 shifts up, 5 inverts, 9 rotates right, etc). XTthetaN now acts as a copy key for the set (pressing alpha pastes) and a tile selector for the map, so a certain tile in the tileset can be selected directly from the map instead of by moving the cursor around.

EDIT: oh, and i changed the file tab and fixed a few bugs again.

[aeTIos]

Wow I really like this
