MINOR UTILS
by uchideshi34
Minor Utils is a toolbox that adds many small features to enhance the core experience of Dungeondraft:
Additional buttons to the main tools panel
Configurable shortcuts for all the tools and other features
Templates for the Scatter Tool
Walls sorting options in the Select Tool
Bevel Corners button added for walls in the Selection Tool
Persisting grid visibility across sessions and Bevel Corner settings
Random mirroring in the Scatter Tool
SHORTCUT CONFIGURATION
The mod adds a new tool in the Settings tab, called Shortcut Configuration.
Clicking on it will display the list of tools associated with buttons.
For each tool, the first column of ON/OFF buttons will toggle a new button in the left bar for easy access, similar to the optional vanilla hotbar from recent versions.
For example, if I want a direct access to the Path Tool on the left, I can toggle the first ON/OFF button on its line.
The second ON/OFF column enables a keyboard shortcut for each tool.
Here's the full list of shortcuts added by the mod:
The mod also adds 4 other shortcuts to help you manage asset sorting more easily:
You'll need to have _Lib enabled to be able to see and edit all the mod's shortcuts in Preferences.
When if _Lib is disabled, you'll see in Preferences only the shortcuts you've enabled, and won't be able to access to the sorting ones.
PERSISTING GRID VISIBILITY
When this mod is enabled, it will automatically remember if your grid was displayed or hidden last time you closed Dungeondraft, and will display it accordingly.
BETTER SCATTER TOOL
Random Mirror
The mod adds a Random Mirror button in the Scatter Tool. If enabled, it will randomly mirror assets during their placement for more visual variety.
Scatter Templates
If you have _Lib enabled, you can go into Preferences to have access to Minor Tool's settings and enable the possibility to store and use your own templates for the Scatter Tool.
Once this option is activated, a new toolbar will appear in the left panel.
With this bar, you'll now be able to create and edit scatter presets and groups of presets.
Presets
When the icon 
is white, you're in Preset mode. Each setting and every selected asset can be remembered inside of a single preset so it can be easily accessed later.
You can add a new preset by clicking on the dropdown menu.
Groups
When the icon 
is blue, you're in Group mode. You can make several groups so presets to sort your presets (for example if you have several custom asset packs).
You can add a new preset by clicking on the dropdown menu.
Other Icons
: Save each Preset
: Rename each Preset or Setting
: Delete each Preset or Setting
BETTER WALL TOOL
By selecting a Wall in the Selection Tool, you have now access to the Bring To Front and to the Send To Back buttons.
You also have access to the Bevel Corners button in the Selection Tool.
PREFERENCES
When _Lib is installed, you have access to the mod's Preferences.
Selected Asset Layer Differences Preserved on Layer Up
When you use the keyboard shortcuts to move assets on another layer, disabling this option will put all the assets on the same layer regardless of what layer they were on. Enabling this option will keep the layer order and just move everything on different layers.

Known Limitations
Performance may be impacted, although it had never been reported to this day.
Using this mod with other mods that directly update the in built tool panels may result in inconsistent behaviour although at time of writing there are no known incompatibilities.
Using this mod without _Lib or with an untested version of it can prevent you from accessing the shortcuts window.
Usually, creators post some minor updates of their mods on Discord and release a bigger update from time to time on CartographyAssets.com, so if you're missing some features from there, you might find the most recent version on Discord.
