Description

Questions
The viewer is a convenient editor window, in which you can play a VFX flipbook (spritesheet) instantly. Take a look at the documentation to see all features and video.
It allows to precisely scrub the timeline, making a review process easier. A custom frame range can be looped instead of the entire animation. Quick levels adjustments let you debug the content without opening Photoshop. Also if you downloaded a pack of flipbooks, you can easily check how they look with a given background and blend mode.
The intention of the tool is simple, intuitive playback of a single spritesheet. It doesn't load or create particle systems.
