BENZIN is another option

But it's command-line only, so don't know if you can understand it and if you can edit the resulting XML file from the brlyt and then recompile it :P

https://gbatemp.net/threads/mini-release-ez-benzin.443295/

For try to fix the Wii Layout Editor tools, download the following required plugins for that:
https://www.softpedia.com/get/Others/Signatures-Updates/Visual-C-Runtime-Installer.shtml#download (Microsoft Visual C++ Installer)
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17851 (Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0)

Look also at this quote from http://wiki.tockdom.com/wiki/Wii_Layout_Editor if WiiLayoutEditor still doesn't start:
Wii Layout Editor is a program created by Gericom. It is able to view certain types of file extentions, such as BRLAN and BRLYT. If the program does not start, it means that the OpenGL version is not supported.
Hope this helps ;)

EDIT: If you want to edit manually brlyt files with BENZIN, you can check this tutorial:

Cheers :D

Pero es solo en la línea de comandos, así que no sé si puede entenderlo y si puede editar el archivo XML resultante del brlyt y luego volver a compilarlo. :PAG

Para intentar arreglar las herramientas del Editor de diseño de Wii , descargue los siguientes complementos necesarios para eso:
https://www.softpedia.com/get/Others/Signatures-Updates/Visual-C-Runtime-Installer.shtml#download (Instalador de Microsoft Visual C ++)
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17851 (Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0)

Mire también esta cita de http://wiki.tockdom.com/wiki/Wii_Layout_Editor si WiiLayoutEditor todavía no se inicia:

Espero que esto ayude ;)

EDITAR: Si desea editar archivos brlyt manualmente con BENZIN, puede consultar este tutorial:

Salud :D
Thanks friend, I finally made the layout editor work. Problem, I had pngs instead of tpl.

Looking for alternatives I found wexo's toolbox, will it work?

Remember this is a English forum so the admins of GBAtemp will be upset because we're speaking in our language hahaha.

Please write in English, sorry.

antes de que funcionara, no se si esto fue despues de instalar visual studio.

desinstalar visual studio tampoco funcionó
1. English forum only, please write in English
2. You're running the app wrong. Don't open it using Visual Studio, just open the exe file as normally you do for most Windows programs and applications.
3. You have still missing required Visual C++ redistributables plugins on your PC. Download them all in: https://www.softpedia.com/get/Others/Signatures-Updates/Visual-C-Runtime-Installer.shtml#download

According to me I put it in English.
I start it normally but it sends me to visual studio.
I'm going to install the c++ that you recommend. Thank you

I installed the fix, but I still can't open .brlan files in Wii Layout Editor.
Wii Layout Editor is not able to edit the .brlan (Wii banner animation) files. It is just for read and edit .brlyt (Wii banner layout) files.
If you want to use BENZIN, convert the .brlan to .xmlan, not .xmlyt. Converting to .xmlyt requires the .brlyt to convert.

In other words:
brlyt ---> xmlyt
brlan ---> xmlan
