Layers

Assets can have one or more children (Generically called layers). Layers are what get transformed and output into your texture atlas.

Editing Layer Data and Settings.

You can access the data and settings for your layer by finding it in the layer list of your asset and clicking on it. The right hand side will show its settings.

ℹ️
If a parent asset merges all its layers you'll be able to edit the settings and data for the merged layer. Otherwise you can edit setting for individual layers

Name

You can name your layers whatever you like. This name is exported as name in the JSON file.
