Maps
Maps are layered collections of tiles in a grid that 128 tiles wide and 128 tiles tall.
A map contains a foreground layer, a background layer, a collision map, and 8 warp points.
Map previews can be exported to your Photo Gallery of the SDK Spriter online gallery (iPad only), based on the current zoom setting (25% to 100%) on the Maps menu.
