Can I create a 'hole' in a sprite geometry using the PSDImporter/2DAnimation packages?

I'm moving away from Anima2d towards 2DAnimation. One feature in Anima2D that I haven't yet found in 2DAnimation is the option to create a 'hole' in the sprite's geometry.

Anima2D had a 'hole' button, and, here was the user manual blurb:

"Add holes: Sometimes you may want to avoid showing a part of the mesh in your game. To do that you can use a hole, which you can add to an enclosed area by pressing the Hole button and then double-clicking at the place you want to add the hole to"

Does 2DAnimation have any equivalent? Specifically, I'd like to create a hole *AFTER* the auto-geometry does most of the grunt-work for me. For example, imagine a smaller circle cut out from the inside of a larger circle (topologically equivalent to a 2d donut, for example).

I'm not seeing an option to do this in the UI. Am I missing something in the UI, or is this a missing feature? if it's missing, is it planned for a future release?

 

Thanks Ted, interestingly I'm having a rather different outcome when I try that. For example, starting from here:



I'll use the 'Create Vertex' tool to create four vertices:



then when when I create the edges, the central 'hole' remains filled:



Am I following a similiar process to you? or is there something nuanced that I'm missing?

I'm using 2DAnimation Version 6.0.5, not sure if I need to use v7.

Thanks for your help!

 

Switching to 2021.2 is no problem for me. Thanks for the clarification!

 

I hadn't thought to test it when I tried the newer 2d animation- will a sprite that has closed areas of edges from a previous version have holes in it when moved to 7.x? Or will that only be for meshes created in the new version of the editor?
