### An all-new costume editing feature

Our first new addon is a costume editor feature - it's called "Skewing in costume editor".
This addon adds a brand new costume editor feature - it's called "Skewing in costume editor".

By skewing, we mean this:
Skewing lets you move one axis so that the object has a slant, as shown below:

To skew an object, enable the addon, then, while dragging a horizontal or vertical resize handle, hold <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> and drag parallel to the side. Hold <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> and <kbd>Alt</kbd> simultaneously to skew it out in both directions.

### What the sprite?

You know of that bug where you're trying to drag and drop something into a sprite and it just makes the sprite pane glitch out? We've already had a fix for that - the "Disable sprite wobble in sprite pane" addon (this bug is actually why we made that addon), except now, we found a way to fix the bug without disabling the wobble animation as a consequence. Our upgraded addon is called "Fix sprite pane glitching".
