Editor Overview

Sprite Fusion is built around two work areas:

• The tileset panel for loading tilesets and selecting tiles
• The map canvas for placing tiles and editing the current map

Interface

Project Panel (1)

The project panel is where you manage your project settings such as:

• Project name and description
• Tile size
• Grid visibility and grid background color
• Project save and load

Tileset Panel (2)

The tileset panel stores imported spritesheets and autotile tilesets. You use it to:

• Select one tile or a rectangular group of tiles
• Remove a tileset if it is not used in the map (right click on the tileset)
• Swap a tileset image with another image that has the exact same dimensions (right click on the tileset)

Tool Bar (3)

Sprite Fusion ships with four tools:

• Pencil
• Fill
• Selection
• Attributes

See Draw Modes for the detailed behavior of each one.

Layers Panel (4)

The layers panel lets you:

• Add regular or autotile layers
• Rename layers
• Duplicate layers
• Toggle layer visibility
• Toggle collision on a layer
• Reorder layers

See Layers and Collisions for more options and details.

Export Panel (5)

The export panel groups targets into:

• Game Engines
• Raw Formats (for custom engines)
• Tabletop software

See Export Overview and the individual export pages for target-specific limitations.

• Ctrl / Cmd + Z: Undo
• Ctrl / Cmd + Shift + Z: Redo
