Hey friends!
I’ve been tinkering with this little tool for environmental artists or just anyone who finds it useful! Check it out below!
I mainly did it to learn more about Blueprints but I also tried to get some functionality out of it! However I feel like I don’t need to take it any further. For learning purposes I’m just about done with it. Before uploading it to the community I’d however like to take your feedback and input - maybe you’d like another feature that’s not included? If so - let me know and I’ll see what I can do!
Features already implemented___
- Drag and drop a functional blueprint into your level for instant access to the overlays.
- Three compositional overlays and three grid overlays that can individually be toggled on and off.
- Opacity slider to control the visibility of all overlays.
- Option to invert the color of the overlays from black to white.
- Ability to flip the overlays horizontally and vertically.
Roadmap________ (potential future features)
- Giving the user the ability to colorize the overlay freely would be a nice feature.
- Eventually add dropdowns for choosing between the grids? It’d be much cleaner but at the same time why limit the utilization?
If nothing unexpectedly pop up I plan to wrap this up by the weekend and just release it for free from my blog!
Take care!

Suggestions for additional composition checking features (no idea yet whether you can do it in blueprint effectively):
