Option to show lump size in bytes[]
"1.04kb" in "Size" column is a waste of space. Displaying size in bytes is more precise, doesn't waste space, unambiguous (kb=1000b or 1024?), and allows to identify big lumps easily, by number of digits. There should be an option to do this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.73.162.160 (talk • contribs)
- Implemented in r658. This is an option that can be set from the Editor->Preferences... window, called "adapt size units to entry size". Unchecking it to will do what you want. (For reference, though, the units used are based on powers of two, so 1 kb == 1024 b and 1 mb == 1024 kb.) --Gez 23:08, September 16, 2010 (UTC)
Recognize Doomsday Engine definitions[]
Doomsday Engine definitions are not automatically recognized by SLADE currently. I added the following to config\entry_types\types_text.txt to add detection:
// Doomsday Engine definitions
ded_lump : text
{
name = "Doomsday Engine definitions";
match_name = "dd_defns";
}
ded_file : text
{
name = "Doomsday Engine definitions file";
match_ext = "ded";
}
It seems to work. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.63.85.80 (talk • contribs)
- Done in r749. With a little difference as I've made it so that only one entry type is needed. --Gez 15:49, October 19, 2010 (UTC)
Scroll large graphics[]
Very large images sometimes don't fit in window. Zooming works but sometimes a few large textres differ only in subtle detail. Thus, the ability to scroll would bwe nice.
- You can already do that with a drag-and-drop using the right mouse button (not left; drag-and-drop with the left button changes image offsets). --Gez 22:30, March 1, 2011 (UTC)
Don't move the entry panel cursor when changing filter[]
The filter field in the entry panel is useful for finding a particu;ar lump, but cursor will move to another lump when the filter field contents are changed; thus one can't see nearby lumps.
- This appears to be fixed now, but the list scrolls up to the beginning automatically and it can be hard to find selected lumps.
- Added in r897. The list will now keep the last selected entry visible as long as it's not filtered out.
option for choosing background[]
some graphics (stg* in doom2.wad for example) are hard to see on gray background, cyan or magenta would be better
- Added in r897. Look at the "Graphics" level of the Preferences.
Display an error message on attempt to modify an IWAD[]
Display an error message on attempt to modify an IWAD. Right now nothing happens. (Windows XP SP3, Slade3 r782 build by Catopromancy)
- This has been added in r835.
USDC[]
I have the 3.0.0 version of one of your programs (IDK the name, "It's a Doom Editor"? lol) and It recognizes UDMF lumps. I was wondering how much trouble would it to add USDF, the Universal Strife Dialog Format. I have added it in the .PK3, but nothing I can discern has changed. I can put my copy of the definition file here, if someone would like.

- Added in r899.
Export maps to Quake[]
Add the ability to export maps to Quake 1 and 2.
- Not going to happen, sorry. --Sirjuddington 07:12, April 14, 2011 (UTC)
Mass-rename and auto-offset...[]
...but for TEXTUREx. You would not believe how much of a godsend this would be for someone trying to make 2D stuff. (Like me!)
Still, I'd wager there's some good reason it isn't in there already. Technical limitations? --Lioyd
- Well, mass-renaming of textures is already in. Select several, then right-click->rename. Auto-offsets, it's certainly possible, but it would be limited to ZDoom TEXTURES, since vanilla TEXTUREx cannot have offsets. Unless you meant something else? --Gez 21:59, May 31, 2012 (UTC)
- Added auto-offsets in r1324. --Gez 08:35, June 19, 2012 (UTC)
