Can't remove sprite from atlas in 2.6.4

[juggernate]

I need to remove a sprite from an atlas...but when I click the X, then the red "Delete" button, I get the "Operation Canceled" popup that says "The selected sprites can't fit into the atlas...". But I'm just trying to remove, not add anything.

I have tried checking/unchecking the options in the Atlas maker and tried deleting different sprites, but I still get the same error.

I just updated to 2.6.4, but I haven't tried this operation for a few versions so I don't know if it is a new issue.

Sounds like even after removing the sprite your atlas is still too big for the target device.

Switch your target platform to PC and try again.

I'm targeting iOS (and Android). I have a 2048 atlas and that has been working on my devices. Why would removing a sprite from the atlas make it bigger?

I changed target to pc/mac like you said and then I could delete the sprite, resulting in an atlas of the same 2048 size, then I could change the target back to iOS and it appears to work fine.

Thanks for the workaround  , but it seems a bit tedious to have to change targets just to delete a sprite

Hmm... strange.

I can't make a new one either with all the same sprites (minus what I'm trying to remove). If I target android or ios, it seems to be limited to 1024?

If you have GLES 1.1 / ARMv6 targeted, then yes -- the limit is 1024x1024.

Ah ok, that was it. I had es1.1 for the Android target and changed it to 2.0 (though I already had 2.0 for iOS which was my active target)
Thanks!
