Icon Merge

Accessed by pressing the Merge tab or pressing 4. Most people won't need these functions, but this section allows you to create new icons or reproduce icons from in game (this is ideal for items that are either very hard to obtain, or no longer available). This section is still being actively developed, so UI interactions may change in future versions.

Several backgrounds are already shown, drag and drop an image file onto a background to create a new icon. Pure white areas will be transparent when they are combined. Use the drop down box at the bottom to add edge effects.

The gray boxes in the middle can be used to combine more than two images. First drag and drop one of the backdrops onto a gray middle box (if you have a new background image you've created, drag the file onto it). Then add as many more images as desired. Double click when done to get a save dialog. Use the edge effects dialog to add effects during any of the image adds (switch back to None when no effect is wanted). Remember that any pure white areas will be transparent, if you have a pure white area that you want to show up, replace it with near white (eg RGB 254,254,254). Note that dragging and dropping a background tile (any of the non-gray tiles) will replace the image, hold shift while dragging and dropping if you want to combine or merge them.
