Tip:

• You can apply default presets to Assets by folder to automatically set your desired import settings.
• All image types are subject to dynamic atlasing if they’re not already in an atlas. (An image is in an atlas if imported as a Sprite with Sprite Mode set to Multiple, or if you have manually added it to a Sprite AtlasGraphics: A utility that packs several sprite textures tightly together within a single texture known as an atlas. More info. 2D: A texture that is composed of several smaller textures. Also referred to as a texture atlas, image sprite, sprite sheet or packed texture. More info.
  See in Glossary asset.) You can configure dynamic atlasing in a Panel Settings asset.
