Spine Tag Helper – Photoshop Plugin
A compact panel for fast, structured tagging of PSD Layers and Groups. Ideal for preparing animation files for export to Spine or for managing PNG assets more efficiently.

Key Features:
• Apply Spine tags like [merge], [ignore], [scale:0.5], [trim:true], [folder] + more
• Batch add/remove tags for multiple selections
• Tag descriptions & help, Inspect long cut-off names
• Detect illegal tag combinations (e.g., nested [merge])
• Quickly add or remove color labels

Note:
This is not an exporter. It’s a companion tool used before running the free PhotoshopToSpine script from Esoteric Software.

UPDATED VERSION: v1.3.3 – November 2025
• Removed the forced folder expansion when adding or removing tags.
• Added input delay to guard against potential crashes caused by spamming a button.
• Added Plugin Panel Icons + corrected tooltip for [path] tag.
• Improved Tagging so it only affects the selected groups and visible/selected sub layers.
• Added safer batch processing with a cancel button to avoid crashes on large tasks.
• Updated the scale tag range: removed the old maximum of 1.0 and set a new minimum of 0.01.

Compatibility:
Tested on Photoshop 2024 (v25.3.1), Photoshop 2025 (v26.11.1) and Photoshop 2026 (v27.00.0)
