Hello. I enjoy helping you guys on the community forum, but now I need help.
I also looked all over the internet, but I could not find a solution to the problem I'm having.
I use Spine to create animations and they look great when I import them to Game Maker Studio, but I cannot preview them on texture pages.
Here is what I am doing. I go to Global Game Settings/ Windows/ Graphics/ and then I click Preview to see all my texture pages. The texture page size is 2048*2048.
After I click the button, GMS creates all the texture pages (in a backup folder I presume). Shortly after, my windows photo gallery pops up displaying all texture pages I created. Of course, I can preview all the sprites I made EXCEPT for the Spine sprites. After looking through all the pictures in this folder, None of the Spine sprites I created have appeared on any of the texture pages. Note: All the other sprites that I have NOT made in Spine appear exactly in the texture groups I expect them to be, backgrounds included.
So my question is, where are my Spine sprites?
The reason why I am asking is because I am trying to optimize my game. It would help me to minimize the texture swapping in my game as much as possible, and it would help if I could see which texture pages they are on. I infer that the fewer texture pages they are on, the better.
This is NOT a big problem for me right now because my game runs like close to 700 fps on 30 texture swaps, but I don't want it to become an issue later in development as my game gets bigger.
I would also like to suggest that everyone who has Spine animations in their game do the steps I just did to see if they have this problem as well.
Thanks in advance.

Edit: I would also like to suggest that this issue is addressed in the Game Maker help section when it is figured out.
