assets inside project?

Open jaroslaw-weber opened this issue 4 months ago • 4 comments

I have 3 projects and the assets are becoming quite big. Is there a way to split assets between projects? Move them in separate folders instead of have one big folder.

btw i love the new ui.

I have a similar use case so I started namespacing my asset names as a workaround. I find it a little counter-intuitive that everything is project-based except assets which are global (although I can imagine some people may want to re-use assets across projects).

In the web app it is definitely a bit weird how projects are handled (they're really just different decks). If your project becomes large enough and you want better file management, I recommend switching to the desktop app (you can download for Mac, Windows, Linux from releases). In the desktop app, your projects are saved to individual folders with their own assets folder. It's also a bit safer to save to the filesystem since web app local storage is susceptible to the cache being purged.

I wish there was a cloud save option... But I guess I will try desktop app.

+1. I would like folders. (even for a single project... monsters/ weapons/ cardParts/ etc) I would also like the images to not be stored in the db, this would speed things up...
