Sprite Editor [Solved]

[carljthatsme]

I’m on lecture 53. Button Layout and when instructed to click on sprite folder and the chosen button and press sprite editor, nothing is popping up, I can slick sprite editor 1000 times and nothing happens? Any ideas? Is it some sort of resolution issue or something? Everything is done exactly like the video and I’ve tried swapping images and reopening Unity and nothing.

Edit: Starting the lecture again because I tried to trust Google and it messed everything up haha. Keep this open in case there’s a solution, I have a feeling it must be related to my monitor resolutions fighting with Unity

EDIT: As I expected, it was my screen resolution being too large, simple user error.

Did you perhaps create a 3D project instead of a 2D one? I found that since some recent earlier version the sprite editor is no longer added to 3D projects. You have to go to the Package Manager and manually add it.

Find it here and click ‘Install’ at the bottom

Pretty sure it was 2D I chose, there is a chance it may have been 3D (though the overlay looked like 2D) and already made sure it was installed in packet manager.

I think it is just a case of my resolution scaling being off. Had it a little higher than recommended. Starting the project again tonight, it won’t take long to get back to where I was.

Thanks anyway (I’ll make doubly sure it’s in 2D in set up)

If it is indeed the resolution you may want to log a bug with Unity
