Update: VertexHelper Pro (with Undo/Redo and the option to save and load your work) is now available on the Mac AppStore. Get VertexHelpre Pro here (iTunes Link) and you'll do a good deed to help me put bread on the table and continue developing VertexHelper. Thanks!
I found it extremely tedious to define the vertices of sprites for the Box2D or Chipmunk physics engines. Maybe I was just not using the right tool. So I wrote my own. It's called VertexHelper and it lets you graphically define vertices of sprites for Box2D and Chipmunk bodies/shapes. You can find it on github.This video shows you what it does and how it works:
Enjoy!

Thanks for noticing that, Robustus. I'll take care of it!

Very appreciate that you built such an app for free.
Just to mention that you may need to do some conversions between CGRect and NSRect, CGPoint and NSPoint.
eg in your code:
-(CALayer *)hitTest:(NSPoint)aPoint
NSPointInRect(aPoint,[self bounds])
is better to use the following
NSPointInRect(aPoint,NSRectFromCGRect([self bounds]))
Nice app!! I like it a lot!!

This is great (I just wish it had been around a couple months ago). Well done!
