Online Layout Editor

I want to share my new little project with you. It’s an online layout editor for the hero picker.

Features:

• Align hero portraits to a grid
• Choose grid size to your taste
• Different portrait sizes accordingly to the chosen grid
• Generation and download of a valid txt-file for the Dota 2 Client (what sense would this tool make otherwise?)
• Generation and download of a preview image of the designed layout to post in your favorite forum/twitter/whatever
• Sharing your creation with others by simply copying the link from your browsers address bar, it contains all information of your layout, you can also bookmark your different layouts
• Works (at least) in Firefox 14 and Internet Explorer 9 (I didn’t see that coming)

Preview image example:

Bugs:

• Works not in the browser integrated in Dota 2
• Works not in Google Chrome (seems to be the same engine as Dota 2’s browser)
• Works for all resolutions with 16:9 aspect ratio, does not work correctly with other aspect ratios!

Known possible flaws:

• Some buttons are currently evaluated with Javascript, so turn it on in your browser!

To do:

• Make it work with most common browsers
• Make it work for all resolutions/aspect ratios
• Warn the user when not all heroes are placed on the grid/written to layout file, as the Dota 2 Client may react strangely
• Beware users of using impossible grid settings which may end up in a completely grey hero grid
• Save link to layout inside the generated txt-file for later editing

Planned features:

• Allow other grid styles (e. g. arc grid)
• Make it more dynamic by using more Javascript (currently the page reloads on every click)
• Shorter links to created layouts
• Change the way how heroes are selected for positioning (I know the list on the right is somewhat painful)
• Sorting heroes by name/role/attack range/main attribute

Far future features:

• A gallery where users can view, vote and download other users layouts
• Host the generated preview images on my server (to get rid of free imagehosters)
• Make it possible to import layouts generated by the game

Disclaimer:
This piece of software is currently in beta stage! I put it together to the stage you currently see in one day. There may be severe bugs (although it is unlikely that it will harm your computer as it is only a webpage). The links to your designs mentioned above may change without notice and may invalidate your saved designs (I will try to avoid this, but I can’t promise it).

Help:
If you like what I’m doing, have any suggestions or bug reports please do not hesitate to drop me a PM or write directly to this thread!

And now the most important thing, the link to the website:

Thank you for reading!
